is it possible that this remote doesn't have the pve-network patches
that add the return statement? Without them the issue is that the
rollback on PVE side happens, but the response from the PVE side cannot
be parsed (since it doesnt fit the JSONSchema defined there) and
therefore leads to this error. We might be able to work around by this
overriding the auto-generated Rust types in generate.pl as well, but
that seemed suboptimal as well.
