Certbot update

EFF’s Let’s Encrypt has made a change in the use of the acme protocol.

A new version of the acme protocol has been taken into use by Let’s Encrypt. This means that the certbot software needs an update as well. OpenBSD does not update its packages for other things than security fixes. This means an update of certbot, and its dependencies, need to be taken from a snapshot.

This has been done in the following way

root@host# export PKG_PATH="http://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/`uname -p`/"
root@host# pkg_add -v certbot

This will update certbot to it’s latest version. In my case to 0.25.1. All dependencies will also be taken into account properly.
