Public bug reported:
The current /etc/init.d/ddclient.conf script is written in such a way
that "start" will never work as an argument (that is, it will only work
if it's already started). The commented-out lines are the ones I have
removed, and I have marked the ones I have added.

if [ "$run_daemon" = "true" ]; then # my line
