Cause: Adding a duplicate user resulted in a generic error message.
Consequence: The error message itself was not specific enough to tell you exactly what was wrong.
Fix: Include the object type and primary key in the error message. In this case the fact that a user with login xyz already exists.
Result: A more consistent, understandable error message is presented.

Do I understand correctly that you are requesting a LESS-specific error message? This would revert the following bugs (from ticket https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/530) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=655994 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=656001 Or do you want less information only for users? sorry ... mixed that up ... no want the error message to be consistent with all the other CLIs and report "ipa: ERROR: user with name sup34 already exists" Fixed in 67a29028160e129c3cf486b6caa1333f0d237596. verified: :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :: [ LOG ] :: ipa-user-cli-add-003: Add Duplicate User :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :: [10:37:32] :: Executing: ipa user-add --first=Superuser --last=crazylastnametoolong sup34 ipa: ERROR: user with name "sup34" already exists :: [10:37:34] :: "ipa user-add --first=Superuser --last=crazylastnametoolong sup34" failed as expected. :: [10:37:35] :: Error message as expected: ipa: ERROR: user with name sup34 already exists :: [ PASS ] :: Verify expected error message.
