I'm sorry I have created new bugreport. I don't exactly know debian
bugtracking interface (it was my first attempt to submit bug with this
interface). Maybe I should read more documentation ... :-)

Patch has been done against Debian version of yaird, downloaded with
apt-get source yaird. So I think I have fresh sources.

I think it is very easy to separate:

- yaird-0.0.12/perl/Plan.pm part of diff is the first patch for newly

  (ignore non-root encrypted device with keyfile)

- rest is the second patch for
  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=443821
