+
+The R.....X codes are Obnam's error codes. They're reasonably stable
+and automatically generated. It's there to make it easier to grep for
+errors. Some day it'll be useful to understand log files from users
+who use a non-English locale, as the error code will be unchanged.
+
+See obnamlib/structurederror.py for details. In short, each error
+message is a class (subclass of obnamlib.StructuredError) and the
+class contains the error text (or template).
+
+The manual has an automatically generated list of error codes and
+message:
+http://code.liw.fi/obnam/manual/ci/obnam-manual.en.html#appendix-error-mess=
+ages
+
+This particular error message is "generic", i.e., used for all obnam
+commands that need to access the repository as a client, but the
+client name isn't found (possibly becuase, as in your case, the
+client name is automatically chosen from the computer hostname, and
+the user didn't know about it). Thus, I'd like the error message text
+to be suitable for them. Possibly something like:
+
+ "Client B does not exist in the repository. Use --client-name A to
+ choose client name, and 'obnam clients' to see which exist."
+
+Improving the manual would be a good thing as well.
+
+> Alternatively, perhaps it might be worth documenting the use of
+> --client-name in the 'Restoring from backups' section of the manual? I am
+> happy to improve the docs, but I have no idea where to start with the cod=
+e.
+
+Patch for error messsage or manual or both warmly welcome. Thank you.
