Description Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2007-10-27 08:53:14 UTC 
1. The HOMEPAGE for haproxy hasn't been loading for 3 days now for me, not sure if  it has moved. The google cache of the page says there is a critical fix to 1.3.12 as 1.3.12.3 and a that 1.3.13 is also out.

2. Could you please improve the init scripts to support the graceful restart option as documented by upstream?

1. The http://haproxy.1wt.eu/download/ URL is still accessible so I keep the HOMEPAGE for now.

2. I've looked over the man page and didn't discovered any way to gracefully restart the daemon. I see only a graceful stop, but nothing that would suit a "reload" init option. Please be more specific.

1. The entire site (/download/ included) times out from my network location (Vancouver, Canada).

2. Read /usr/share/doc/haproxy-*/haproxy-en.txt.bz2, sections "1.6) Helping process management" and "2.4.1) Hot reconfiguration".

Fixed in cvs.

Lets hope main distfiles mirror will be able to download SRC_URI. If not, ping me and I'll upload the tarball in distfiles-local.

I don't use this package. Maybe you wanna become the maintainer? ;)
