/usr/local/sbin/emacs-28.0.50/

This directory is not a symlink, it contains emacs-28.0.50 executable
and its symlink emacs.

/usr/local/sbin/emacs-28.0.50/ctags
/usr/local/sbin/emacs-28.0.50/ebrowse
/usr/local/sbin/emacs-28.0.50/emacs -> emacs-28.0.50
/usr/local/sbin/emacs-28.0.50/emacs-28.0.50
/usr/local/sbin/emacs-28.0.50/emacsclient
/usr/local/sbin/emacs-28.0.50/etags

/usr/local/bin/

The symlink is from /usr/local/sbin/emacs-28.0.50/emacs-28.0.50, not
from /usr/local/sbin/emacs-28.0.50/emacs which is itself a symlink of
/usr/local/sbin/emacs-28.0.50/emacs-28.0.50 (see above).

>   . are you invoking the symlink explicitly or via PATH?

Via PATH, i.e. with emacs.

>   . where is the .pdmp file?

Didn't find such file.

>   . where is the installed native-lisp/ directory?

/usr/local/lib/emacs/28.0.50/

Not a symlink.
