Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu better.

I get a similar error message when attempting to start pivman. I also found a corresponding bug report in Debian, so I have attached a bug watch.

I've tested this on an up-to-date Ubuntu 17.04 vm now. After installing 1.3.0-1+ubuntu17.04.1 from -proposed, I no longer see the error message when attempting to start `pivman`. I don't have a yubikey so it is a bit limited how much I can verify, but the program seems to run as expected and I haven't seen any crashes.
