Haproxy doesn't checks for configuration on start/reload

Hello Jorge, or anyone else affected,

Accepted haproxy into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/haproxy/1.4.24-2ubuntu0.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

This bug was fixed in the package haproxy - 1.4.24-2ubuntu0.1

---------------
haproxy (1.4.24-2ubuntu0.1) trusty; urgency=medium

  * debian/haproxy.init:
     + Backport of utopic start/stop routines,
       uses start-stop-daemon to reliable terminate all
       haproxy processes and return the proper exit code.
       (LP: #1462495).
     + Backport of utopic check_haproxy_config routine,
       that test the configuration before start or reload.
       (LP: #1468879)
