title: HAProxy build with more Debian-like configuration

I made a HAProxy build with Debian-style config file because some of the *haproxy.cfg* files on my servers became really big.
HAProxy has an option to include multiple config files as a command line arguent, like this: *haproxy -f haproxy.cfg -f haproxy2.cfg -f...etc*. 

<!-- more -->

{% asset_img haproxy.png HAProxy /etc directory tree %}

So, the algoritm is like:

1. Read /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg (The global settings)
2. Read /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg.d/http/http.cfg (Global settings for HTTP)
3. Read /etc/haproxy/haproxy/cfg.d/http/frontend-* (HTTP frontends)
4. Read /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg.d/http/backend-* (HTTP backends)
5. Read /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg.d/tcp/tcp.cfg (Global settings for TCP)
... and the same as for HTTP

### TODO:

* PPA:
I have some problems with *Quilt* and *debuild* but *dpkg-buildpackage* runs?
* Systemd script.
