问题
If I set PYTHONPATH to some path /path/to/modules/, then the path is appended to sys.path and I can import modules/packages contained in /path/to/modules/.
However, if I only want access to a single module/package, then adding /path/to/modules/mymod.py or /path/to/modules/mypackage/ to sys.path does not work.
So is there a way to add only a single module/package to the import search path, rather than adding the entire parent directory?
I am asking because I need to import a single package installed under /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ from within a virtual environment, and I would prefer not to give the virtual environment access to all of the modules/packages installed under that path. (The package has a complicated build process and cannot be easily installed to a virtual environment.)
I have read https://stackoverflow.com/a/67692/ but I am wondering if it's possible to actually include the package in the import search path, so that the package (and the modules it contains) can be imported normally.

There is no such way. If you want to import a module you have to add its
parent directory to sys.path. But you can remove it later:
sys.path.append('/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/')
import mypackage
del sys.path[-1]
