Description

Problem

When the download and install .deb package and try run pip install using pip from bundled python there is information that the package will be installed in user mode because site-package is not writable.

Packages installed in user mode will be available in all python3.8 environments and may introduce unexpected side effects.

pip bundled in app should use different location to install a new packages.

Proposed Solution

set alternative install location in user directory when run in non administrator mode and add this location to PYTHONPATH
