Dear, I'm running Oracle Linux 8.8 and would like to upgrade to the latest available cups package.

Unfortunately, Oracle's public yum repository ol8_appstream only offer cups 2.2.6.

This was released in November 2017 !!! (https://www.cups.org/blog.html)

Q1) can cups 2.3.6 be made available in ol8_appstream


# uname -r

5.15.0-106.131.4.el8uek.x86_64


# dnf info cups.x86_64 | egrep 'Packages|Version|Release|Repository'

Release   : 51.el8_8.2

Repository  : @System

Available Packages

Version   : 2.2.6

Release   : 54.el8_9

Howdy, Stranger!
