Certbot error: cannot import name _remove_dead_weakref

[jlp17346-letsencrypt]

I try to renew the certificate and i have this message:

sudo /var/opt/letsencrypt/letsencrypt-auto renew
Error: couldn't get currently installed version for /opt/eff.org/certbot/venv/bin/letsencrypt:
Traceback (most recent call last):

from _weakref import (
ImportError: cannot import name _remove_dead_weakref

the procedure is automatic each wee. It's a bash running on Raspbian Buster.

Thanks to tell me what i should do to solve the problem.

A first debugging step can be to try and recreate the virtual environment used by letsencrypt-auto.

You can do this by simply deleting it:

sudo rm -rf /opt/off.org/certbot

When you run letsencrypt-auto again, it will recreate the virtual environment and hopefully resolve the issue:

sudo /var/opt/letsencrypt/letsencrypt-auto renew

It’s work
