But the pyvenv is a dead link
The verify statement was incorrect.
As a test, I used
certbot renew --standalone and got
Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: module 'lib' has no attribute 'OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms'
So, to ensure there were no invalid versions of certbot I removed
sudo apt remove --purge certbot
sudo snap remove certbot
find / -iname 'certbot'
which certbot
which returned nothing.
I left the directory /etc/letsencrypt intact
I'm going to leave this now but thank you so much for taking the time to help me, I'm sorry I took your time up.
