This works for me (Linux Debian 3.16.64-2):

mv /opt/eff.org/certbot /opt/eff.org/certbot.old

certbot-auto

I solved this problem by deleting the virtualenv bin directory and re-running the certbot-auto command, which will cause certbot to re-install dependencies. To find the location of the directory, look at the first line of the error response: Error: couldn't get currently installed version for /root/.local/share/letsencrypt/bin/letsencrypt. This location will vary.

Accordingly, deleting /root/.local/share/letsencrypt/bin/ should remove the installed dependencies and got the certs but up and running.

Just do

rm -rf /root/.local/share/letsencrypt/bin/letsencrypt

and try again.
