[PATCH 3/6] nsenter: adjust few error messages

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The 'neither filename nor target' is changed to use errx() rather than
err(), because the errno is indicating success at the time of fatal error
which is wrong message for an user.

The "cannot open %s" is same string as in other files, making translators
to work less.

Remaining changes aim to ease understanding what went wrong for a
non-programmer audience.
