Details

The error dialog we get when a package fails to install just say "an XPI package failed to install". Rather than this generic message, it should say *which* package didn't install.
I couldn't find a duplicate of this so I am marking this NEW as an enhancement.

Summary: XPI error dialog should say which package failed to install → [RFE] XPI error dialog should say which package failed to install
I assume this is with the installer, not simply clicking on a .xpi archive because the engine doesn't display *any* dialog. I think there is another bug about the error conditions for that one, reassigning to ssu
