Do you get the same error if you run the Python source code? (I.e.: Try running /usr/share/yumex/yumex.py instead of /usr/bin/yumex)

When's the last time you ran a fsck? (Do a sudo touch /forcefsck and reboot to force fsck to run. The reboot is needed since fsck can't work on mounted file systems.) The seg. fault problem sometimes results from a drive error reading a block as all zeros.

Found problem it was the rpm gtk2-immodule-xim that was causing the yumex crash.

Uninstalled gtk2-immodule-xim and it solved the problem, Yumex is back to it's old self again.
Thanks for your responds

Here is the bug report on it.
