This needs to be in the log viewer instead

See attached screenshot. I was lucky to screenshot it in time before it disappeared. This is not useful, because I cannot read the error before it goes away and cannot select the text to paste it into a terminal window to correct the problem.

Since we actually do show a log viewer panel for information messages during updates on Arch-based distros, we should use use this for errors as well.
