Yes, there are quite a few distributions that care more about providing `bleeding edge' software, that the stability a more conservative enterprise grade distro like RedHad provides.

Fedora 22 is an example.

You can find out for yourself. This link has many of the popular Linux distros. Click on the right site distro link and then scroll down the page to the packages provided on each version.
