Bug Description
software-center trunk r2275, Ubuntu 11.10 beta 1
0. Break the SSO server (temporarily!) such that it is returning HTTP 500 errors for sign-in requests.
1. Navigate to the screen for a purchasable item.
2. Choose "Buy".
3. Sign in to Ubuntu SSO.
What happens: An unstyled HTML message appears: "OpenID failed" - "OpenID authentication failed: HTTP Response status from identity URL host is not 200. Got status 500"
What should happen: An apologetic, helpful, and nice-looking error message. Something like: "Sorry" - "Ubuntu Single Sign On isn’t available at the moment. Try again in a few minutes."
