Quick comment: the button label "Install details..." sounds like a verb phrase when I think you intend it to be a noun phrase.

Since this is essentially a link to another place in the UI, use the name of the destination as the label for the button, like "Installed Software...".
Another use-case/issue/workflow to account for is installing patches ... they might be something in between installing software, and doing updates. This has recently came up as a change in behavior from 3.3, to 3.4 so the thought was perhaps it should be reconciled in 3.5. See bug 245299. David williams.us.ibm.com
