Certbot-renew.service fails because there is no /usr/bin/certbot

[fragraider]

Hello

On aarch64 with packages certbot-systemd-timer, python313-certbot, installed, certbot-renew.service fails when triggered by the former or manually:

certbot-renew.service: Failed at step EXEC spawning /usr/bin/certbot: No such file or directory

Not being aware of how the system is intended to work i believe one of these are the problem:

1. There should be a package “python3-cerbot” (see: https://en.opensuse.org/Certbot) which has (in this case) python313-certbot as dependency and creates a link /usr/bin/certbot -> /usr/bin/certbot-3.13

2. certbot-renew.service should be configured to run /usr/bin/certbot-3.13 instead of /usr/bin/certbot

My guess is the first option is the correct “solution” and would create a bug report if there is agreement.

I upgraded from Leap 15.6 to 16 in December using the opensuse-migration-tool with no issues and have not touched the repositories. The system runs on an aarch64 VPS and is up to date. Certbot and the timer where working as expected on Leap 15.6.
