I need downgrade to Proxmox 4.x?
What is the solution?

1 - remove completely your current scst installation
2 - install pve headers:

apt install pve-headers-`uname -r`

3- install scst with the method described in this readme: https://github.com/ubuntu-pkg/scst
4- now you can follow the wik pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Tape_Drives, only for configuration (scst.conf)
