int explain_printf_or_die(const char *format);

from the explain_printf(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).
The explain_printf_on_error function is used to call the printf(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,
obtained from the explain_printf(3) function, but still returns to the caller.
format The format, exactly as to be passed to the printf(3) system call.
