I am running MariaDB 10.3 on Ubuntu 20.04. Now MariaDB is not running and one database in it. Can I uninstall the MariaDB 10.3 retaining database? My plan is that install a higher version of MariaDB and get back the existing database. If so, which commands do I have to apply?

mysqldump -u [username] -p [DATABASE name] > [backup filename].sql
mysql -u [username] -p [DATABASE name] < [backup filename].sqlI got the solution, uninstall MariaDB without deleting databases and reinstall it again.
sudo apt purge "mariadb*" -y
sudo apt autoremove -y
sudo apt-get install mariadb-server mariadb-client
