Tnaks for reporting, I will look into the issue

Comment 2 Stephen Haffly 2014-06-22 01:39:04 UTC
Reverting to 3.0.13 works for me also.

Comment 3 Joshua Rosen 2014-06-30 18:51:07 UTC
I'm seeing the same problem.

Comment 4 Joshua Rosen 2014-07-23 13:31:40 UTC
It's been a month, how come nothing has happened?. This is a serious problem, it's impossible to use Yumex on a remote machine in it's current broken state.
