Package: certbot
Version: 0.23.0-1

Hi,

<screenshot>
stappers@paddy:~/letsencrypt
$ certbot certonly --config-dir ./etc --work-dir ./lib --apache -d 
stappers.nl,may.stappers.nl,ipa.stappers.nl,cloud.stappers.nl
Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log
Could not choose appropriate plugin: The requested apache plugin does not 
appear to be installed
The requested apache plugin does not appear to be installed
stappers@paddy:~/letsencrypt
$ 
</screenshot>

In other words:
* Non-root user 'stappers' is on host 'paddy' in directory 'letsencrypt'
* Running `certbot --apache` yields "apache plugin not installed"

Which apache plugin is missing, is not in the output.
Neither in the logging.

Yup -- sorry for the confusion!  We can't use Recommends, or it will
conflict with other HTTP servers that are installed.
