Except it’s there<\/em> — running “pip install certbot-dns-porkbun” (and even trying pip3 just to make sure<\/em>) tells me it’s already installed. Looking around for the files, this turns out to be one of those things that there’s obviously a right<\/em> way to solve and a quick<\/em> way to solve. For some reason, \/usr\/local\/lib is not being searched for packages even though it’s included in my PYTHONPATH. The right thing to do is figure out why this is happening. Quick solution?
