Subject: [PATCH] iproute2: improved error messages
From: Kees van Reeuwijk <reeuwijk@....vu.nl>
This patch improves many error messages as follows:
- For incorrect parameters, show the value of the offending parameter, rather than just say that it is incorrect
- Rephrased messages for clarity
- Rephrased to more `mainstream' english
Signed-off-by: Kees van Reeuwijk <reeuwijk@....vu.nl>
