Title:
  Regression: Package download error fails silently

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Software Center version 4.1.23.5, Ubuntu Oneiric

  If an error occurs during the download of a package during an install,
  the installation simply fails silently with no notice to the user of
  the problem. In the previous gtk2-based UI, we displayed an error
  dialog in this case. We just need to restore the dialog as it was
  displayed in the previous UI. All translatable strings, etc. are
  already in place for this.

  Note that the error case is reported in the log output as before. It's
  only the dialog itself that is missing:

  2011-09-26 19:25:13,877 - softwarecenter.backend - ERROR - error in _on_trans_finished 'Error: Failed to download package files
  Check your Internet connection.
