This works if the unzipped directory images exists. In my case that won't
be true.

What I am doing is creating a script that runs a python script, captures
any images created by matplotlib, creates an org-file, then creates a
zip-file that contains the org-file of the script, the output, and links to
the figures, as well as the figures. The zip-file will then be submitted to
a server, where the original images do not exist. I can unzip the zip-file
on the server, and it works fine, but I was trying to avoid that.

Yup - you are right: I was a bit too cavalier in my testing. I don't
know how to accomplish what you want. I'll think about it some more.
