Why have a venv if stab matrix won't install python packages to it?

[ionite34]

Our package install process and the python package manager menu should both install into the package's venv. Can you describe what behavior you're observing and what behavior you expect.

[RangerFrank]

Dependencies for imported nodes constantly get installed to the standalone python rather than the venv.

How did you install the imported nodes, is it the builtin extensions manager or ComfyUI manager, if so did you install ComfyUI Manager the normal way or the portable way for embedded python? The latter (portable / embedded) method only works with embedded ComfyUI and not Stability Matrix. Following their normal instructions for git cloning to extra nodes folder should work fine with the venv.

All three, standalone, portable and stability matrix. All three run into issues of not installing packages to the correct python location or venv. Makes it even more difficult when there's version discrepancies for dependencies based on which packages are needed for what components.

Could you give a list of steps you took, and what you observed as a result of it not installing into the venv? This shouldn't occur with ComfyUI installs in Stability Matrix.
