[CentOS] Yumex in 6.5 minimal -

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?

Bob
