Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
   - A bad control flow checking for the Yubikey's presence too early
     and causes the script to send the initial entered passphrase to
     stdout without challenging the Yubikey.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
   - Reboot, wait for the LUKS passphrase prompt, insert the Yubikey,
     type the CORRECT passphrase.

   * What was the outcome of this action?
   - The passphrase could not unlock the LUKS device at the first try

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
   - Unlocking of the LUKS device with my passphrase + LUKS at the first
     try
