Can't ./certbot-auto renew, shows Error with venv: non-zero exit status 1

CentOS6, Apache 2.2

Hi!
I received a notiifcation via email on expiring two of my domains although SSLLabs shows that the certificates are valid until April.
So I run ./certbot-auto renew just for case.

Here's the output:

With --no-bootstrap option the renewal passed fine.
So what should I do to avoid the problems in the future?

Same problem here: Failed to run certbot-auto successfully on CentOS 6.5
It seems a problem with python / pip versions installed on CentOS.
