i've this docker sh service script in /etc/init.d on a debain 8 machine:

# Short-Description: Create lightweight, portable, self-sufficient containers.
# Description:
# Docker is an open-source project to easily create lightweight, portable,
# self-sufficient containers from any application. The same container that a
# developer builds and tests on a laptop can run at scale, in production, on
# VMs, bare metal, OpenStack clusters, public clouds and more.

the problem with this is that it doesn't pass the DOCKER_OPTS value to the start-stop-daemon section in start section (or at least they don't work and don't appear in the command of the resulting process in ps aux output).
We've tried to put the DOCKER_OPTS directly in the script as well as let it been read on the default config file but the result is the same, the options doesn't make any effect.
If we try to launch the process with start-stop-daemon directly form terminal with the same options it work just fine.
What can be the reason of this ?
On a side note, we also try to play with the script a bit and found this strage situation:
we made a copy of the status section called statu, then we call booth and they give us different results.
status :
● docker.service - Docker Application Container Engine
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/docker.service; enabled)
Active: active (running) since Thu 2016-02-25 12:40:43 CET; 4min 35s ago

statu: [FAIL[....] Docker is not running ... failed!
Being the code the same this is quite a surprise !? Why is it so ?
