Issues installing SCST

[Virt]

Running into issues after following the instructions here: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Tape_D...ie_8.x_.28Preferred_method_and_recommended.29

I am working with scst 3.2.x rather than 3.1.x (though I should really be working with 3.4.x but couldn't get that working either).
