This is not a duplicate. My network is fully up when I get the warning,
doing /etc/init.d/ddclient (start|restart):

WARNING:  found neither ipv4 nor ipv6 address

in /var/log/messages

When I change the ddclient.conf to:
protocol=dyndns2
use=web
server=domains.google.com
ssl=yes
login=...
password=...
your_resource.your_domain.tld

Warning goes away. I think if you look at the patch in

https://sourceforge.net/p/ddclient/mailman/message/36416530/

there is a fix for it.
