Hi!  If you could build and run the self-test of the ykclient package on
an internet-connected machine, that should hopefully trigger the bug.
If so, please file a bug.  Version 2.9 should fix this problem, and
doesn't contain anything critical, so maybe it could be uploaded if
indeed this is a grave bug.  I don't have access to any armel devices
easily.
