I had to run it like below not to get iptables help output, which shouldn't be the case.

salt-call network.ipaddrs -l quet

Thanks for the report, we'll take a look.

This is due to a function being run during module loading, in the iptables module's __virtual__() function. This was fixed 8 days ago, and the fix will be in the next release of Salt.

Closing.
