This is a known issue on the qbittorrent repo.

Is there a way to override which version tag the script fetches? If not, I think the only real option is to wait until qbittorrent releases a fixed version

Thanks for pointing this out to me. I rolled back to version 5.1.0 based on their suggestion.
To do so, you can download the script directly :

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/ct/qbittorrent.sh -O qbittorrent.sh

edit the script

nano qbittorrent.sh

make it executable,

chmod +x qbittorrent.sh

then run it.

./qbittorrent.sh

these are the two lines I edited:

FULLRELEASE=$(curl -fsSL https://api.github.com/repos/userdocs/qbittorrent-nox-static/releases/latest | grep "tag_name" | awk '{print substr($2, 2, length($2)-3) }')

RELEASE=$(echo $FULLRELEASE | cut -c 9-13)

and replaced them with:

FULLRELEASE="release-5.1.0_v2.0.11"

RELEASE="5.1.0_v2.0.11"

That did the trick for me.

FYI, version 5.1.2 is out now and the error is fixed. Running 'update' worked fine for me.
