thanks

Thank you for your efforts to fix most of the issues with the
initscript. However, after migrating from 4.3.3-5 and the DHCPv4 server
successfully starting, I still see two obvious issues, both with the
status command:

 - It fails to see that servers are running:

# service isc-dhcp-server status
Status of ISC DHCPv4 server:  is not running.
Status of ISC DHCPv6 server:  is not running.

   This is because it checks the wrong variables DHCPv4/6_PID, which are
   never set, instead of DHCPDv4/6_PID

 - As mentioned before, the status will return an error code if the
   DHCPv4 server is running but the DHCPv6 server is not running, even
   if the latter is disabled in the configuration, as when simply
   upgrading the package. This seems wrong and breaks stuff. I suggest
   that the status command uses `test -n "$INTERFACESv4/6"` conditional
   guards similar to the start command too, with the $INTERFACES magic
   factored out.

Please fix the status command in all cases.

Thanks,
