What should I do from here?

It's a well-known problem. You need to patch your copy of py-libzfs.
Unfortunately, the patch hasn't been picked up by upstream because the port
maintainer believes it to be incorrect, but hasn't found the correct
solution yet.

Here's the patch:
https://github.com/trueos/freebsd-ports/commit/00da370342012d87331eae3d74ef6784ed8172be

And here's the discussion:

Thanks! I searched by email but not the iocage project. That fixed it.
