How to prevent creation of '/etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.tld-0001' when removing domains from a `domain.tld` multidomain certificate?

Hi @EdGeis,

The right way should be this:

Before doing any change, please, backup (as user root):

tar zcvf /root/backup_etc_letsencrypt_2018-Oct-06.tar.gz /etc/letsencrypt/

And then, recreate the symbolic links pointing to the last files inside archive/mydomain.com

cd /etc/letsencrypt/live/mydomain.com/
ln -sf ../../archive/mydomain.com/cert2.pem cert.pem
ln -sf ../../archive/mydomain.com/chain2.pem chain.pem
ln -sf ../../archive/mydomain.com/fullchain2.pem fullchain.pem
ln -sf ../../archive/mydomain.com/privkey2.pem privkey.pem

Good luck,
sahsanu
