As a user of Rocky linux 8, like many other user I have a problem with glusterfs. Version that is on official link is version 9.4, and that version have, a lot bugs. On gluster web page there is newer version 9.6, and I hope that version on [Index of /vault/centos/8.5.2111/storage/x86\_64/gluster-9/Packages/g/](https://dl.rockylinux.org/vault/centos/8.5.2111/storage/x86_64/gluster-9/Packages/g/) 9.4 will be update to 9.6.

Is there any procedure to request from Rocky creator do make something like this.

You can obtain glusterfs packages by installing any of the centos-release-gluster\* packages.

```auto
[root@cm01 ~]# dnf search centos-release | grep gluster

On the end I found solution.

First add repository:

```auto
[Gluster 9.x]
name=Gluster 9.6
baseurl=http://centos.unlimited.rs/centos/8-stream/storage/x86_64/gluster-9
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

```

then

```auto
dnf --enablerepo=powertools install python3-pyxattr

```

and for finish:

```auto
dnf install glusterfs-server

```
