How do I specify a pre-existing Julia installation when using JuliaCall?

[pscarpati]

I noticed that when pip installs JuliaCall, it also creates a julia installation inside of .julia
is it possible to skip this step and link JuliaCall to a specific Julia installation that already exists?

Many thanks
