Being on Ubuntu 16.04 I've first installed libguestfs-tool and then libguestfs-zfs.
The latter is supposed to bring ZFS filesystem support, but it doesn't. Here is how
I've tested:
```
$ sudo guestfish -N fs:zfs:2GB
libguestfs: error: mkfs: zfs: /dev/sda1: mkfs: failed to execute mkfs.zfs: No such file or directory
guestfish: error creating prepared disk image 'fs:zfs:2GB' on 'test1.img': failed to create filesystem (zfs): mkfs: zfs: /dev/sda1: mkfs: failed to execute mkfs.zfs: No such file or directory
```
I don't think there is much I could do wrong in the process, I'm quite confident it's a bug in the libguestfs-zfs package. I kindly ask for a fix or patch.
PS: Here is the list of packages that I have installed:
```
