For Debian stable, usually only a critical vulnerability. In theory,
this could also be major bugs, but maintaining an hybrid patched version
is something we prefer not to do, to not have people running in the wild
an additional unsupported (by upstream) branch.
For Debian backports, they should follow the version in testing.
Sometimes (like now), I forget to upload the version once it reaches
testing.
Note that Debian backports may upgrade you to a new major version
without much warning.

Just Curious ... (probably a Vincent et al question?)
What considerations/timings trigger gating an haproxy release getting
into debian (and backports) archives ?
Severity of problems fixed in release (e.g. CVE, ...) ?
Available bandwidth/fatigue of uploaders ?
Debian guidelinesĀ ?
As always - gratitude and kudos to all for a stellar and useful system.
