A clear and concise description of the issue.

When trying to create a wildcard certificate in Let's Encrypt in the Namecheap provider, the following error is generated.

  certbot [SUBCOMMAND] [options] [-d DOMAIN] [-d DOMAIN] ...

Certbot can obtain and install HTTPS/TLS/SSL certificates.  By default,
it will attempt to use a webserver both for obtaining and installing the
certificate. 
certbot: error: unrecognized arguments: --dns-namecheap-credentials /etc/letsencrypt/credentials/credentials-48

    at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:304:5)

I was able to solve it by installing the certbot plugin manually:

pip install certbot-dns-namecheap

🚨 Since there are hundreds of Certbot instances, it's necessary to install the specific Certbot of your preference.
