I also ran into this recently; it seems that the Debian packaging explicitly passes --disable-firstboot during configuration due to a preference for debconf. However, it's not at all clear to me that debconf provides a superset of firstboot's functionality. In particular, the hostnamectl man page advises users to use firstboot to set a container's initial hostname, but I can't work out how one would accomplish this with debconf.
