Same issue at my side:

Requirement already satisfied: setuptools>=1.0 in /opt/eff.org/certbot/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages (from josepy==1.1.0->-r /tmp/tmp.HuTppwRXXz/letsencrypt-auto-requirements.txt (line 87))
THESE PACKAGES DO NOT MATCH THE HASHES FROM THE REQUIREMENTS FILE. If you have updated the package versions, please update the hashes. Otherwise, examine the package contents carefully; someone may have tampered with them.

=====================================================

Certbot has problem setting up the virtual environment.

We were not be able to guess the right solution from your pip 
output.

Consult https://certbot.eff.org/docs/install.html#problems-with-python-virtual-environment
for possible solutions.
You may also find some support resources at https://certbot.eff.org/support/ .`

I found my pip config:

root@moon:~# cat /etc/pip.conf

[global]

I deleted the /etc/pip.conf file and certboot managed to work again

Thanks
