I'm trying to install software in kali that requires my Python version to be 3.6.9 or lower. I also need to install pip to install requirements. I have Python3.6.9 installed and when I run #apt-get install python3-pip It also updates my Python version to 3.10 Is there a way to get pip installed without upgrading my python version?

linux python-3.x python

If you are looking to install pip on to an existing python installation, which did not come with pip pre-installed, you can use the bootstrap script to that. Like

curl -sSL https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
python get-pip.py  #or python3

If you want to update the pip version installed, then you can use

python -m pip install --upgrade pip
