Don't underestimate the value of a self contained binary. I used to use Borg and Attic. Then I needed to recover my backup only to find that all the python dependencies had gone out of sync on Arch Linux. After that I switched to Restic. Then I had a power failure during upgrade. After that I switched to Guix.

You could have just used the self-contained borg binary (download from github releases page). It contains everything needed (python, python libs, other libs) except glibc and related libs which must match the OS / kernel and therefore are intentionally not included.

surely,after fixing all the dependencies, and getting borg running again, you would've been able to access your backups?
