What new package do you want?

haproxy 2.4

Why?

In haproxy 2.4 was be added many function (LTS Version)

Testing

I agree to test the new package to ensure that it works as expected. Once I am satisfied with the results of my testing I will comment on this issue with the word "STABLE" to get it promoted to the stable repos.

Using the following Spec on RHEL 8, may be it's a good start.

%description
HAProxy is a TCP/HTTP reverse proxy which is particularly suited for high
availability environments. Indeed, it can:
 - route HTTP requests depending on statically assigned cookies
 - spread load among several servers while assuring server persistence
   through the use of HTTP cookies
 - switch to backup servers in the event a main one fails
 - accept connections to special ports dedicated to service monitoring
 - stop accepting connections without breaking existing ones
 - add, modify, and delete HTTP headers in both directions
 - block requests matching particular patterns
 - report detailed status to authenticated users from a URI
   intercepted from the application
