Comment 2 for bug 1055572

Sorry for the delay. When trying to load the module for the first time
(before installing), using the update module list functionality, there is
no way to know what happened to a new module if it has some sort of error.
After you load it, if there's an error (e.g. after an update) then of
course openerp doesn't start.

Regards,
Marcos
