Description of problem: Today I started Yumex 3.0.4.1fc16 and realized just one update: yumex-3.0.5-2.fc16 . I performed it and exit Yumex. Then, I tried to start Yumex again to see the situation after the upgrade. It gave the error: Fatal error (I'm not sure of the expression, I'm re-translating this part from Turkish) and -in English-: "Backend not running as expected (yumex will close)". Then from the command line via yum I uninstalled Yumex and instaled it again. I got the same error. Then I undid all those changes one by one with the help of "yum history undo" command. Now I'm with the Yumex as before all these started and it functions. It still proposes me the update yumex-3.0.5-2.fc16. I'm not trying to do it once more. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Yumex already at hand: 3.0.5-2.fc16 Yumex which is tried to be upgraded to: 3.0.4.1fc16 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have a machine with Fedora 16 and Yumex 3.0.4.1fc16 2. View the Yumex 3.0.4.1fc16 the update warning via Yumex and apply it. 3. Exit Yumex 4. Start Yumex Actual results: Yumex says: Fatal error[?] Backend not running as expected (yumex will close) Expected results: Yumex to function Additional info: I can create the situation again and send any info, output of some commands etc. if you ask me to do so and tell me the exact files, commans and so on.
Sorry, I copied and pasted the version numbers just the opposite in somewhere. Obviously it should be read as: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Yumex already at hand: 3.0.4.1fc16 Yumex which is tried to be upgraded to: 3.0.5-2.fc16 Steps to Reproduce: 2. View the Yumex 3.0.5-2.fc16 update warning via Yumex and apply it.
I also tried the upgrade to Yumex 3.0.5-2.fc16 and observed the same error when attempting to exit yumex. The upgraded version seems to confuse the shutting down of the yum backend as an error, rather than just a normal event in the shutdown process. I have downgraded to the pre-existing version Yumex 3.0.4.1.fc16.
works for me on F17 & RHEL6 (Don't have a F16 system anymore) try running /usr/bin/yumex -d in a console and attach the output to this report

As being the original reporter, I can confirm that this bug is no more valid. After submitting the report, I was applying all the updates but the yumex update in question. After the last two comments, I applied it as well and yumex works in a normal fashion. I don't know what update fixed the issue because there was an amount of them.
