Who are these two people and how are they related to this change?
I am wondering if "Sup" is the author of this change and "Sven" is
only relaying his change, or the other way around or what.

In any case, your log message left a lot of room for improvement;
here is my attempt.

Subject: [PATCH] config: close config file handle in case of error

When updating an existing configuration file, we did not always
close the filehandle that is reading from the current configuration
file when we encountered an error (e.g. when unsetting a variable
that does not exist).
