Domain.txt gets parsed after updating from 0.4.0 using the http-01 method:

dehydrated -c -t http-01

# INFO: Using main config file /etc/dehydrated/config
Processing host.domain.tld
 + Checking domain name(s) of existing cert... unchanged.
 + Checking expire date of existing cert...
 + Valid till Mar 13 06:03:22 2018 GMT Certificate will not expire
(Longer than 30 days). Skipping renew!
[...]

I was using dns-01 verification however which worked fine before and fails right away:

dehydrated -c -t dns-01 -k dns-01_challenge_hook.sh

# INFO: Using main config file /etc/dehydrated/config
 ERROR: No nsupdate key file for zone  found. Can't publish challenge without.

Debug output:

Your hook-script is outdated. It fails when dehydrated calls the startup_hook, if your script doesn't implement that hook it should just ignore it.
