Title:
Block automatic sync from debian for the next LTS
Status in haproxy package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Upstream haproxy has the concept of an LTS release, and a stable (non-
LTS) release. Currently, these are (see table at
http://www.haproxy.org/):
stable: 2.1.x
stable LTS: 2.0.x
Debian unstable is at the moment tracking 2.0.x, and debian
experimental is tracking 2.1.x.
For the next ubuntu lts release, we would like to stay on the 2.0.x
track, which is upstream's LTS.
From the 2.0 upstream announcement[2]:
"""
The development will go on with 2.1 which will not be LTS, so it will
experience quite some breakage to prepare 2.2 which will be LTS and
expected approximately at the same date next year.
"""
"same date next year" would be roughly June 2020, so not in time for
Ubuntu 20.04.
Since this package is a sync, whenever the debian maintainers decide
to push 2.1.x into unstable, we will automatically sync it (if we are
not yet in feature freeze mode). To avoid that, a few options were
explored[1], and adding an ubuntu version to the package seems the
best one.
Therefore, the package will have an ubuntu version, have its
maintainer changed, but no extra delta, just to stop the automatic
sync from happening. Whenever new versions of the 2.0.x track are
uploaded to debian/sid, we will merge it manually into ubuntu.
