Check the MySQL download page for current version...

• wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-apt-config_0.8.20-1_all.deb
• sudo apt install ./mysql-apt-config_0.8.20-1_all.deb

Select "debian buster"

Select "Ok"

Select "Ok"

• sudo apt update
• sudo apt upgrade

Now you can go ahead & pretend they haven't dropped MySQL from the Debian repos...
