Tried yumex from testing on a three machines. Installs OK but generates
pages of warnings. The unique ones are:
(yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `angle' for class `GtkLabel'
(yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `ellipsize' for class `GtkLabel'
(yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `ellipsize' for class `GtkProgressBar'
(yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `focus_on_map' for class `GtkDialog'
(yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `focus_on_map' for class `GtkWindow'
(yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `hover_expand' for class `GtkTreeView'
(yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `hover_selection' for class `GtkTreeView'
(yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `single_line_mode' for class `GtkLabel'
(yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `width_chars' for class `GtkLabel'
At run-time, finds packages to update and does so successfully, but then
pops up a request window with a light bulb and options "OK" and
"Cancel". Clicking either does nothing but the box can be closed by
clicking the "x" in the top-right corner. The application is still
alive and can be exited cleanly from the "File" menu.
Output from the window follows:
Mirrordetection : best

The Help/About window shows similar button behavior - "Close" has no
effect but window can be closed by "x".
Can't find an existing entry at bugs.centos.org. Could create one, but
perhaps the packager should initiate it.

If you are using the c4-testing repository from http://dev.centos.org/
please consider providing feedback about the rpms you're using either
here to the devel list with a quick email, or (my preference, but open
for discussion/suggestions) via bugs.centos.org. We need the feedback
for packages to be able to move them to centosplus, extras,addons, or
where-ever else they're destined to go. Your feedback will help us to
provide stable packages that benefit everyone.
