Free Up Install Space?

Hey guys - hoping an emonSD and file system guru can help me, although not strictly related to OEM!

Trying to side load tuya-convert for some home automation work but have hit a snag with a pip install. Keeping getting a free space error when one of the components tries to install:

Collecting pycryptodomex
  Using cached https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/f5/79/9d9206688385d1e7a5ff925e7aab1d685636256e34a409037aa7adbbe611/pycryptodomex-3.9.8.tar.gz
Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 28] No space left on device

I have tried clearly temp directories and pruning/clearing unused packages, but I am assuming this is a temp directory issue as I have plenty of space on the SD:

pi@emonpi:/tmp $ df -h

tmpfs            98M     0   98M   0% /run/user/1000

Is there a remapping of temp or a command that would allow me to get this package installed?

Cheers.

The general advice is don’t load anything on a system running emoncms and more so for tuya-convert. It mucks about with ports, services etc so really is not a good idea. I have an SD card specifically for tuya-convert.

Fair enough, thanks Brian. SD imaging it is.

It is also safer in the long run.
