I 'purchased' Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances from the software center. The package failed to install. It's now unclear what I'm supposed to do to get my purchase onto my system. The software center app has a status indicator that says "Installing...", but that seems incorrect (download failed). There is a "Buy..." button, do I have to buy my purchase again? If I'd paid money for this app I'd be annoyed that I have to buy it again - I certainly wouldn't want to be charged twice. I expected to see a "please try again" button or something similar, but if it exists I can't find it.
Here's the text in the error dialog:
