Happens here too. But note that sid is not always (all the time) a good candidate for debootstrap (or I think so).
This is like an recurrent bug [1] that was reported days ago [2]
Error is in debootstrap.log
In my case:
init: timeout opening/writing control channel /dev/initctl
dpkg: e2fsprogs: dependency problems, but configuring anyway as you requested:
e2fsprogs depends on util-linux (>= 2.15~rc1-1); however:
Package util-linux is not configured yet.
Setting up e2fsprogs (1.41.12-2) ...
