Package: ddclient
Version: 3.6.2-3.1
Severity: important

Debconf generates an invalid config file /etc/ddclient.conf. The options
are basicly in the wrong order so that ddclient can't update your DNS
information. For example:

My config file after debconf looked like this:
pid=/var/run/ddclient.pid
protocol=dyndns2
use=if, if=ppp0
server=dyndns.noxa.de
login=mylogin
password=mypassword
myhost.h3c.de

With this settings it won't update my DNS information and the update
server complains about missing authentication.

Correct and working are/is the following settings/order:
pid=/var/run/ddclient.pid
login=mylogin
password=mypassword
use=if, if=ppp0
server=dyndns.noxa.de, \
protocol=dyndns2 \
myhost.h3c.de
