upip installing in .frozen

On a Raspberry Pi Zero W with MicroPython, installing libraries with upip says:

>>> import upip
>>> upip.debug = True
>>> upip.install('micropython-pystone')
Installing to: .frozen/

I want to instal to /lib/ instead of .frozen/. How do I tell it where to install a package? When I run the code it tells it can't import the modules I just installed. Removing the /lib/ folder from the Raspberry Pi Zero W and installing upip and the lib folder with it didn't work.

Solution

  • I faced the same problem, solved it by running:

    upip.install('micropython-pystone', '/lib')
