Misleading error message of the day

raises

ValueError: too many values to unpack

Quick, what's the bug?  Did I forget a variable on the LHS, or is my function returning more things than it should?  I know it's supposed to be 14, but I don't know which side is wrong.  Had it said "... expected 13, got 14", I would know immediately.

Error messages should be as explicit as possible.  It's just like bug reports.  The basic mantra of a bug report is:

1) This is what I did

2) This is what I expected to happen

3) This is what I observed happen

4) This is how what I observed differed from what I expected

Saying, "expected X, got Y" is more explicit than "got too many"
