Is it necessary to only keep the description here and throw away the error considering that the second argument to io::Error::new is generic? Won't we loose some information that might be useful for debugging?

Funny, I'm just working on these errors. This was part laziness, knowing that I was coming back to it once it was working, and partly an issue with error-chain. Basically error-chain::Error doesn't derive Sync, which is required by io::Error, so we can't chain the whole error. See this outstanding PR: rust-lang-deprecated/error-chain#163
I just became aware of error_chain::ChainedError, which will give us the whole chain as a formatted string. Not as good as chaining the actual Error, but at least we don't lose the error chain. I'll tack this onto the current PR. Should take me an hour or so to finish up.

Awesome! Congratulations on the rewrite. |

Thanks mate :) A long way from finished, but hopefully it'll be a lot more flexible (and easier to setup!!) for people than the previous version. |
