Agreed.  My suggestion is drop that error print to simplify the code.
It isn't particularly important to know the full filename that we failed
to open so I think dropping it is a reasonable thing to do.

If you really care about the message then
fprintf(stderr, "failed to open %s/%s_index\n", scan_el_dir, current->name);
will work.
