Comment (by sainthkh):

 I thought about there are 3 possible fixes for this ticket.

 1. Call `error` twice.
  * Downside: It's usually not called twice.

 2. Create a new `WP_Error` object with the first message, `Installation
 failed`.
  * Downside: It's too complicated.

 3. Make `WP_Upgrader_Skin->error` handle multiple arguments.
  * Downside: Most error functions in WP only handles one argument. It's
 not consistent.

 I chose 1. Because it's simple.

 The comment said me to add an automated test. But I'm a newbie here and
 checked the tests folder and it seems that the tests don't exist for this
 class. If I missed something, can you help me write tests for this?
