Package: ddclient
Version: 3.8.0-11.5
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

While attempting to get ddclient running on a respbeery pi, I ran into a small 
issue with the ddclient
init script. It works fine for starting the service, however it fails to stop 
the service.

After looking through the init script I could see it was calling:
`start-stop-daemon --stop --verbose --retry=TERM/30/KILL/5 --pidfile 
/var/run/ddclient.pid --name ddclient`

Manually running that command (while the service is running) yields:
`No ddclient found running; none killed.`

I'm WAY too new to the entire ecosystem to know what the *proper* fix is, but I 
managed to fix this on my pi by dropping
the `--name ddclient` from the init script stop command.

In case it helpers, here is what the command likes like when running:
```
root@raspberrypi:~# ps aux | grep -i ddclient
root      4786  0.0  1.0   8804  4900 pts/0    S    12:20   0:01 ddclient - 
sleeping for 160 seconds
```

Again, I'm brand new to pi (and debian really), so I apologize if this is a 
known issue, but I did try updating to the l                     atest version,
as well as searched for existing bugs, which I didn't find.

Thanks
