Amazon Linux 2 has outdated MariaDB

1

MariaDB installed from amazon-linux-extras is still on version 10.5.10 which is 5 versions behind and was released on 2021-05-07.

Also versions 10.6 and 10.7 are both stable releases but are not available in amazon-linux-extras. 10.6 is an LTS version, so at least that should be available.

I understand they can't just automatically upgrade everybody that's on 10.5 to 10.6, but there's no reason they can't add a separate mariadb10.6 repo to amazon-linux-extras like they do for php7.4 and php8.0.

I have switched to using MariaDB's official repo for RHEL 7 and their packages are up to date and work fine of Amazon Linux 2.
