HAproxy : no more available on Wheezy :-(
How could this happen ? I found a communication on that and it has simply been removed as there were no updates since a long time. Even if CVE were recently proposed, it’s considered as not enough :
http://debian.2.n7.nabble.com/Status-of-haproxy-for-upcoming-wheezy-release-td2907665.html
But guys ! Seriously, do you know how many people are using HAproxy ? It’s a shame that it’s not in the current stable version of Debian. Now let’s check the availability on all Debian versions, it’s currently only on oldstable and experimental versions :
http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=haproxy&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all
So what next ? Should we use another solution as it’s not available in Wheezy or should be do package pinning ? For the first time, I’m really not happy with a Debian decision. The final answer is finally there, “wait the backport availability” :

I hope this will be done shortly
