You are using pip version 8.0.3, however version 8.1.2 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the ‘pip install --upgrade pip’ command.

I wanted to renew my certs. So I thought to get the latest and made a $ git pull -v.

Afterwards I switched into the letsencrypt folder and invoked $ ./letsencrypt-auto.

This fails with

Also destroying my old installment on ~/.local/share/letsencrypt. =(

I have # lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Debian Description: Debian GNU/Linux 8.5 (jessie) Release: 8.5 Codename: jessie and it is up-to-date.

and plenty of space # df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 226G 50G 165G 24% / udev 10M 0 10M 0% /dev tmpfs 377M 39M 338M 11% /run tmpfs 941M 0 941M 0% /dev/shm tmpfs 5.0M 4.0K 5.0M 1% /run/lock tmpfs 941M 0 941M 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/sdb1 917G 2.2G 869G 1% /srv/cloud /dev/sdc2 1.8T 125G 1.6T 8% /srv/backup /dev/sdc1 1.8T 273G 1.5T 16% /srv/exports tmpfs 189M 4.0K 189M 1% /run/user/108 tmpfs 189M 0 189M 0% /run/user/1000

Googling about this error lead me to many issues regarding having to less space in /tmp. But this seems not the problem in my case.

I also didn’t had python-pip installed in the first place. So I installed it and run ‘pip install --upgrade pip’ but to no avail.

What should I do?

I believe you're running into the same problem that's described in this thread:

@joohoi provided a temporary workaround in that thread. Since you're on Debian jessie, you could also install the certbot package (which is the new name for the letsencrypt client, all commands should be compatible) from backports via sudo apt-get install python-certbot-apache -t jessie-backports. More details can be found on the certbot homepage.

The problem is now fixed for everybody.
