The error message comes from the curl library. aptdaemon only gets the error string from python-apt. we would have to parse the string and guess. so we only know that there was an error fetching a package file.
But we could enhance the error dialog to show a button to run a update- cache transaction and improve the error message.Currently it reads: Failed to download package files.
