When I start yumex as user it displays but stops with an error message that the backend is not running.
However "yumex --root" starts and runs normally.
It is Centos 6.5 64 bit and using XFCE running in virtualbox if that matters.
Any suggestion as to what I am missing?
is there a service associated with yumex?
chkconfig --list |grep -i yum
will list any such. if there is one, then...
chkconfig yumex on service yumex start
(replace yumex with the service name)
(note the above is purely conjecture, I've never used yumex, I just use yum...)
When Yumex is started from GNOME, it asks for Authentication to start. If Xfce is unable to provide that Auth prompt Yumex may fail (I am guessing).
I do not see any actual service, so I am guessing backend is that Auth stuff.
