How to upgrade mariadb to 10.3.29 from 10.3.28 on Centos 8 stream?

Hello

current version: Mariadb 10.3.28

I want a minor upgrade of database for the st_distance_sphere function and spatial index

I have tried this:

#dnf update maria*
Last metadata expiration check:
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

I tried setup the repository with mariadb repository setup script, but it doesn't work--conflict with the system repos,

tried find a rpm package, nothing found.

Is there an easy way to do this?

Thank you for you time

I see Mariadb offering RPMs here :: https://archive.mariadb.org/yum/10.3.29/centos/8/

Just add this to your /etc/yum.repos.d & install 10.3.29 depending on your CPU architecture.
