[FIXED] How to upgrade util-linux from 2.32.1 to 2.34 in Redhat

Issue

Is there a way to upgrade package util-linux 2.32.1 to version 2.34 on RHEL 8.5. Version 2.34 has many more output columns available for lsblk compared to 2.32.1 that I would like to use.

Searching the repo shows I have the latest.
