Description

Hello, as the title says, I modified a bit the code to clarify an error message, but before actually doing a PR, I saw that the feature had to be discussed in the issue tracker.
I didn't make any tests yet, because I don't know how to proceed to do that, that is actually my first contribution ever…

Any help is welcome
