Source: python-certbot Version: 4.0.0-2 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Hi,
I tried using `--preferred-profile shortlived` with certbot from Debian trixie. There is a problem with renewal: the profile selection does not get remembered and on a renewal the default profile is used instead of the shortlived profile. This is https://github.com/certbot/certbot/pull/10280 (And indeed adding `"preferred_profile"` to `STR_CONFIG_ITEMS` seems to make renewal work correctly.) There have been multiple releases upstream since the fix was merged that have not been uploaded to Debian, the last one is 5.2.2 from 2025-12-10. It would be nice if this bug was also fixed in Debian trixie. Ansgar
