certbot-auto renew

It produced this output:

My web server is (include version):
certonly

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
Raspbian

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know):
yes

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you’re using Certbot):
I did a fresh git clone, which did not help.
(certbot-auto --version yields the same error above)
