CentOS 6 is end-of-life. Even the primary mirror sites over at
vault.centos.org don't work anymore.
That said, if you're staying on CentOS 6, do not use the raw "python"
or "pip" command to install any of it. Use "python3" or "pip3".
pip3 install --user ansible-core
That will only get you the maximum ansible-core compatible with your
release of python 3.
