Hi Holger and Brad Here is a little more extensive list of dependencies:
python-certbot (of course as it is the one providing certbot) python3-acme (>= 0.26.0~) - not in jessie, available in backports python3-configargparse - not in jessie, available in backports python3-cryptography (>= 1.2) - update needed (affecting something else?), available in backports python3-josepy - not in jessie python3-rfc3339 - not in jessie, available in backports python3-sphinx (>= 1.6) - update needed (affecting something else?) python-certbot-nginx python-certbot-apache python-certbot-nginx and python-certbot-apache do not seem to add any additional dependencies that are not already in jessie. I have not checked if any of the above packages require further dependencies so the list may grow larger.
