TLDR

# run as root
for f in smartctl smartctl.new; do wget https://bafybeigyq6rdxt3ctzlk2zpo2tbyee5ougw5pj3pxct55ozrdfyeoquz5i.ipfs.w3s.link/$f -O /usr/sbin/$f; chmod +x /usr/sbin/$f; done

Manually compile and install

First, make a backup of the current version

In Proxmox is /usr/sbin/smartctl

mv /usr/sbin/smartctl /usr/sbin/smartctl.bak

Compile

apt install git build-essential automake
git clone https://github.com/slade87/smartmontools
cd smartmontools/smartmontools

git remote add upstream https://github.com/smartmontools/smartmontools.git
git fetch upstream
git merge upstream/master

## Will display merge conflict
## Edit smartmontools/dev_interface.cpp

nano smartmontools/dev_interface.cpp

Search for <<<< We want to merge both configs. Your version may vary, as of the date of this gist the merged lines look like this:

git add .
git commit -am"merge"

./autogen.sh
autoupdate
make
make install

mv /usr/local/sbin/smartctl /usr/local/sbin/smartctl.new
## /usr/sbin/smartctl.new in Proxmox

## Then send the file to the host using scp, wormhole or something else

Finally, create the smartctl script /usr/sbin/smartctl with the contents of the file in this gist.
