Certbot client is no more capable of renewing Letsencrypt certificates due to changes in the authentication method. Letsencrypt recommends certbot client version to be 0.28 and higher. Any system running Mageia, using Letsencrypt certificates and relying on certbot client to renew those certificate is having a problem now.
I agree that it shoudl be updated. But untill the certbot is updated, there is a way around it. We still run certbot 0.10 on a Debian server, and this server is still able to renew and get new certificates. One just have to change the authenticator from apache to webroot. So we use webroot for authentication and use apache as the installer. The command we use is: certbot --test-cert --authenticator webroot --installer apache -d example.net -d www.example.net --webroot -w /var/www/html

Mageia 6 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-09-30. It is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we weren't able to fix it before Mageia 6's end of life. If you are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If you would like to help fixing bugs in the future, don't hesitate to join the packager team via our mentoring program [1] or join the teams that fit you most [2].
