Oddly works just fine if I use the docker container.

Thanks for reporting @retr0h
How did you install kapitan? Using pip or straight from master?

Pip

I'm getting the same error straight from master.
Here are steps to reproduce:

$ git clone https://github.com/deepmind/kapitan.git
$ cd kapitan
$ virtualenv venv
created virtual environment CPython3.8.6.final.0-64 in 443ms

$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ git submodule update --init
Submodule 'kapitan/reclass' (https://github.com/kapicorp/reclass.git) registered for path 'kapitan/reclass'

$ cd examples/docker/
$ ../../bin/kapitan compile

Compile works in version 0.29.2 and is broken in 0.29.3 and 0.29.4
Looks like something was broken in 6d23e00

Works for me again. Was fixed in 6d8c91c.
Thanks @ramaro!
