It is not bug in start-stop-daemon but in the script belonging to ffproxy.

The user decides what shall be started on boot. This can be done by
rcconf or update-rc.d on Debian system. For example, some users don't
want apache to start on the root as that is how I like it.

But after the boot, it shall be possible to start the service by using:
/etc/init.d/some_script

Your script in the configuration /etc/default asks only if the script
shall be started on boot. That is wrong, because if I say NO, I cannot
start script AFTER THE BOOT without modifying the configuration.

Either state in the configuration script /etc/default/something that you
ask people if the ffproxy shall start at all, or enable the option in
/etc/init.d/ffproxy that script can be started AFTER THE BOOT without
modifying configuration, but not on BOOT as configured in
/etc/default/ffproxy

Do you get the idea?

It is very logical to me.
