Hi Frode, Now that cyphermox sponsored it for Artful ... Could you prepare the debdiff(s) for the affected supported releases ? and I'll sponsored them.

Manual reboot or restart of services is necessary to get expected behaviour. [Test Case] 1) Install, enable and start haproxy 2) Observe that /etc/rsyslog.d/49-haproxy.conf is installed 3) Observe that /var/lib/haproxy/dev/log and /var/log/haproxy.log is NOT created 4) Restart rsyslog service 5) Observe that /var/lib/haproxy/dev/log and /var/log/haproxy.log IS created 6) Restart haproxy service and observe that log now is filled with entries With the patched deb steps 3,4 and 6 becomes irrelevant and everything works out of the box. [Regression Potential] Minimal. This patch merges a patch from Debian where a trigger is added to the rsyslog package that fires when other debs drop files into /etc/rsyslog.d.
