Bug Description
I see several oopses over the past few days like OOPS-920A433. They appear to be caused when the Google response XML is incomplete, or may be empty. Retries of the URL work, so I suspect connectivity may be factor.
We may want to catch these problems and show a message explaining that data was not available, and that the search should be tried again.

We should update the error in the oopses to be clear when incomplete XML was returned to Launchpad. The user should see an explanation in the pagematches location that the search was not returned, but it can be tried again.
