Then we probably need to fix this message?

[local]:5432 nikolay(at)test=# insert into constr (msg) values ('hohoho') ;
INSERT 0 1

[local]:5432 nikolay(at)test=# insert into constr (msg) values ('hohoho') ;
ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "i_constr_msg"
DETAIL: Key (md5(msg))=(8b0dc2e34844337434b8475108a490ab) already exists.

-- it tells us explicitly, that we have a *constraint* named "i_constr_msg".
