mysql - How to upgrade PHPmyAdmin [revisited]

This question was asked previously, How to upgrade PHPmyAdmin


The answer given was


sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin

or


sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

The version of phpmyadmin included in apt-get is 4.5.4, which was released January 28 2016.


In a response to this question one answer was to use use the phpMyAdmin archive which offers the following commands.


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:phpmyadmin/ppa
sudo apt-get update

In my case that updated a lot of things, but, not specifically phpmyadmin, I needed the additional command


sudo apt-get update phpmyadmin

This did successfully get past the version 4.9.0.1 which was released in 2019.


As of this writing it does seem that manually downloading and copying using the vague instructions from docs.phpmyadmin.net is required.


Is there a more current repository for phpmyadmin than the PPA or is a manual install required?
