'iocage create -e' error

[Zenzou]

I'm currently on Freenas 11.1-U4 and trying out iocage.
I've successfully created jails using --plugins (deluge,emby), and created normal and basejails (unifi5 controller)
I tried to create a debian jail,

Code:

http://iocage.readthedocs.io/en/latest/debian.html

however 'iocage create -e' gives a traceback.

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/iocage", line 10, in <module>
	sys.exit(cli())
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/click/core.py", line 722, in __call__

I assume this would go in as an iocage bug, but figured I'd post this here just in case.

Thank you for reporting this. Note that, even after that iocage bug is fixed, this process won't work on FreeNAS as it asks you to install debootstrap on the host.

Reminder that this sub-forum is for discussing bugs not actually reporting them (as in the threads discussed here aren't actioned until a bug report is made).

If you create a bug, please do so at https://github.com/iocage/iocage/issues and post the issue number here.

The OP did report this as a bug using the proper channels, hence my original reply. :)
