Some comments:



Which operation failed?
I think we need to provide a detailed message

For example:

"An error occurs while checking for packages update."

The "Retry" button should be in the footer or be a link instead a button

Software update grid keeps loading on UI when server returns 500 error.
Instead, we shall remove the loading UI and add a message UI to let the
user know something is wrong, as well as add a button to allow the user
retry.
