Public bug reported:

problem occurs on Ubuntu Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS

InitScript /etc/init.d/opendkim is returning statuscode 0 even when
opendkim is down. So servicchecker are not able to determine if service
is down or not. This bug seems to be fixed in Ubuntu 16.04 initscript.

let me show the U14 problem:

# /etc/init.d/opendkim stop
# /etc/init.d/opendkim status
 * opendkim is notttt running
# echo $?
0

U16 looks like this:

# /etc/init.d/opendkim stop
# /etc/init.d/opendkim status

difference is initscript in line 126, the end of the status() function.
retun of statuscode is not cached, so this line should be "exit $status" in place of "return $status"
