Installing certbot

Hi, I'd like to manually install certbot so I can play around with trying to genrate a wildcard certificate. I want to ensure I DO NOT interfere with the current cPanel SSL process, so it it safe to just follow the below instructions to install certbot?

  Hey there! My best advice would be to try it out - the SSLs created through cPanel can always be reissued if something were to go wrong, and since those are free, there really isn't a risk of destroying anything. While we're pretty good at knowing what cPanel does, we aren't as good at saying what negative interactions could happen from third-party software, as that just isn't something we test on our end.

  Thanks cPRex! I managed to install certbot on a different host, and create the wildcard certificate from there.
