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).

Code:
# pveversion
pve-manager/6.0-9/508dcee0 (running kernel: 5.0.21-3-pve)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
# cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/scst-ppa.list
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/scst/3.2.x/ubuntu xenial main
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
