Oct 08 17:20:23 r1-roll ddclient[20063]: WARNING:  malformed IPv4 address (fe80::5054:ff:fe31:79b2)

The reason is option use of ddclient.conf https://github.com/vyos/vyos-1x/blob/adc7ef387d40e92bd7163ee6b401e99e554394a3/data/templates/dynamic-dns/ddclient.conf.tmpl#L12

# ddclient configuration for interface "eth2"
use=if, if=eth2

For ipv6 should be option usev6 https://desec.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dyndns/configure.html#manual-configuration-other-systems

usev6=if, if=eth2

After changing option:

Oct 08 17:30:42 r1-roll ddclient[22035]: SUCCESS:  updating xxx.dynv6.net: good: IP address set to xxxx:xxxx:71:458::126
