Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
haproxy in Ubuntu is currently identical to the Debian haproxy package from which it is derived, so it seems likely to me that Debian will benefit from this patch, too. I would also like to avoid the additional maintenance burden of forking Debian's packaging if possible, and this is better community etiquette anyway. Please could you verify if this patch is suitable for Debian also, and if so, forward it to the Debian bug tracker? Then Ubuntu will automatically sync the patch after it is uploaded to Debian. ** Tags added: needs-upstream-report -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu High Availability Team, which is subscribed to haproxy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1325847 Title: Improvement: initscript enhancement with support for conf.d and configtest on startup Status in “haproxy” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The haproxy initscript misses a configtest option, which haproxy natively supports. It also does not warn the user, if haproxy has been disabled in the default file, but exits silently. Also, it has become a de-facto standard for daemons to include conf.d configuration file support. I attached a patch for the current init script, which remedies all these issues and should be forward/backward compatible to haproxy 1.3/1.4/1.5.
