Interesting. Are we using the same script? (md5sum=50551f1bd833acb1208ddff81b9fe2b2)

Line 59 looks like this:
echo -e "${BL}[Info]${GN} Skipping ${name} ${RD}$container is not Debian or Ubuntu ${CL} \n"

${name} is not defined here. And what should it contain? The name of the container is in $container.
${name} is defined and use in the previous function clean_container from hostname. But not defined in the scope of line 59.

Ah, guess you don't have any LXCs to be skipped!
I have added this to the description now.

Note: my skills on bash are basic only
