Issue #2241 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.

Apple actually moved to this model with their DirectoryServices errors, but 
made the mistake of only ever reporting the error number in logs etc, which can 
get really frustrating, and led them to develop 'dserr' which looks up 
human-readable descriptions based on error numbers.

I'd like to see us be much more usable than that.

Feature #2241: An Error-mapping service should exist to provide better 
error-reporting

Author: Luke Kanies
Status: Accepted
Priority: High
Assignee: Randall Hansen
Category: plumbing
Target version: Telly
Affected Puppet version: 0.24.8
Keywords: usability
Branch: 


We often get errors from underlying classes that are essentially meaningless.  
We should have a simple exception-mapping service that converts these useless 
strings into more meaningful bits.
