[Bug 174997] Re: World-readable config file is insecure

Confirmed in 8.04, 8.10, 9.04(, and Debian unstable).  However, in the
source package, debian/README.Debian clearly states that you (as a
privileged user) should "chmod 600 /etc/default/ddns3-client to protect
your password".

We could work around this issue by creating a debian/postinst to
accomplish the recommendation.  Any comments?

** Changed in: ddns3-client (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

** Changed in: ddns3-client (Ubuntu)
