Sysadmin PIP version upgrade - python and borgbackup

I have been trying to upgrade form simple Rsync to something better for backups. Want to go with Borgbackup however, can't get it installed.

Sadly this server is centos 6, so I have having hard time installing it.
Can't find it yum due to priority thing.

PIP install borg is giving error:

Code:

DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 reached the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 is no longer maintained. pip 21.0 will drop support for Python 2.7 in January 2021. More details about Python 2 support in pip, can be found at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/development/release-process/#python-2-support/

I also saw error that need to upgrade PIP to 2.1 something.

Any advice to get borg installed without breaking things ?

 

Nevermind, found this..
Sysadmin - CentOS 7 Python 2.7 will reach the end of its life on January 1st, 2020

And also found about /usr/local/src/centminmod/addons/python34_install.sh

 

Ya got that working to install borgbackup 1.1.11 . It was hell of a ride, not a single thing went straight but I think settling with borg was good idea. It has deduplication, encryption, compression and all thing I was looking for. And above all, its supported by various backup service provider.
