How could I clip out the yellow part of the image below?
Here is what I tried.
Select the yellow part and the image itself.
Go to Object->Clip->Set. And here is what I am getting.

What else may I try and what could I miss here?
If you are trying to punch out the yellow shape from the brown, then you need to use Path > Difference. For it to work you must select only two objects - the brown shape to be cut, and the yellow shape only.
Here's a simplified example
