One of my older systems started complaining during certbot upgrades. I copied the script to the /root folder and edited it. Changed /etc/cron.d/certbot to point to that instead, and added the --no-self-upgrade switch to the call.

root@ns004:~# diff /usr/local/bin/certbot-auto /root/
1121c1121,1123
<     error "Your system is not supported by certbot-auto anymore."
---
>     if [ "$NO_SELF_UPGRADE" != 1 ]; then
>       error "Your system is not supported by certbot-auto anymore."
>     fi
1128,1129c1130,1133
<       error "Certbot will no longer receive updates."
<       error "Please visit https://certbot.eff.org/ to check for other alternatives."
