It seems like this is turning in to quite a big bug, after my report and several others were marked as duplicates...
yumex uses a stdin/stdout pipe to exchange information between the GUI and the backend there is doing the package action on the system. Some time this pipe breaks for some reason and when the backend tries to write something to the broken pipe, then it gets a IOError: [Errno 5] Input/output error. It can main issue is the pipe is broken and there is no way to get out of that condition is a good ways.
A thought: The usual way for the pipe to get broken is when one side or the other is aborted. Perhap, instead of a pipe, the dbus system would be a better choice for inter-process communications. That way a message that the intended receiver was no longer available could be used as an action basis rather than an abort. (Note: I was using yumex on Rawhide when the yum backend went to sleep without telling yumex, and - when I closed the yumex window - this error popped up.)
@Peter, Agree, I have made a DBus system for the next-gen version of yumex

(In reply to Veteran from comment #26) > Description of problem: > I ran Yumex. Problem happened > Hah, welcome to the club! :P
I have had this happen on multiple computers. Main common issue is if I change the focus from one window to the next on the desktop. I seem to be able to crash yumex almost every time by doing this. Select packages to process and then select apply and change windows to browser or game. Process continues in the background as displayed by the scrolling log files but the processing windows is blank. This is on a fully updated F19 system using KDE.
Another user experienced a similar problem: 1. search items in yumex 2. select various packages 3. apply changes 4. search for items in yumex 5. select various pckgs 3. click apply to crash -- happens intermittently; often the front-end crashes and disapears but the process remains running reporter: libreport-2.2.2 cmdline: /usr/bin/python -E /usr/share/yumex/yum_childtask.py 2 True False /etc/yum.conf virtualbox;rpmfusion-nonfree-updates;google-talkplugin;fedora;infinality;fedy;fedora-chromium;adobe-linux-x86_64;rpmfusion-free;rpmfusion-free-updates;fedora-HandBrake;updates;gtk-theme-config;rpmfusion-nonfree;intellinuxgraphics;infinality-noarch;fedora-chromium-stable dso_list: yum-3.4.3-148.fc20.noarch executable: /usr/share/yumex/yum_childtask.py kernel: 3.14.8-200.fc20.x86_64 package: yumex-3.0.15-1.fc20 reason: misc.py:1017:write:IOError: [Errno 5] Input/output error runlevel: N 5 type: Python uid: 0
