I have discussed this with jtv:

- On DistroSeries:+index we should only display a message that the
  initialization has failed. We should not show a free-form error
  message (which might contain tracebacks or sensitive information).

- For those users who can use DistroSeries:+initseries we can show
  some additional instructions along with the failure message.

  Most likely this will initially be a link to +initseries, to try
  again, but as we become aware of the common failure modes we could
  show something more appropriate.

- Because free-form error messages from jobs are not being displayed
  anywhere, we need to ensure that OOPS reports are being recorded
  when jobs fail.

- I need to talk to Huw about the appearance of the UI.
