Changes Made

HAProxy 2.8.5 → 2.8.13:

• Updated default source_version in resources/install.rb
• Updated source_checksum to: 13dc06a65b7705b94c843bda8b845edbb621bf45e8a9dc7db590d40ab920a9ce
• Updated test recipe source_28.rb with new version and checksum
• Updated unit test stubs in spec/unit/recipes/install_spec.rb for ALL platform contexts:
  • Ubuntu (original)
  • AlmaLinux 9
  • AlmaLinux 10 (uses PCRE2)
  • Amazon Linux (uses PCRE)
  • Fedora (uses PCRE)
  • PCRE disabled scenario
  • Custom OpenSSL scenario

HAProxy 3.2.7 LTS Tests Added:

• Created new test recipe test/cookbooks/test/recipes/source_32.rb
• Version: 3.2.7 (latest LTS as of October 2025)
• Checksum: 1f0ae9dfb0b319e2d5cb6e4cdf931a0877ad88e0090c46cf16faf008fbf54278
• Added source_3.2 suite to kitchen.yml for integration testing
• Added source-32 to CI workflow matrices in .github/workflows/ci.yml
• Created integration test controls at test/integration/source_3.2/controls/source_spec.rb
• Source verification: Homebrew formula (https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core)

Testing Status

• ✅ Linting: Passed - cookstyle found no offenses
• ✅ Unit Tests: Passed - all 29 examples, 0 failures
• ✅ CI Integration: Added to both integration and integration-amazonlinux job matrices
• ✅ Integration Tests: Created InSpec controls for source_3.2
• ⏸️ CI Pipeline: Will run automatically and should now pass

Fix Applied

The RSpec failures were caused by the main branch having expanded test coverage for multiple platforms (AlmaLinux, Amazon Linux, Fedora) that were added after the initial branch was created. After rebasing on main, all stub_command calls for version checking were updated from 2.8.5 to 2.8.13 across all test contexts.

Remaining Work

HAProxy 2.9.x Update: Optional - requires maintainer decision on target version

• Current version: 2.9.3 in test/cookbooks/test/recipes/source_openssl.rb
• Can be addressed in a separate PR if desired

@copilot address rspec error

All RSpec tests are passing locally (16 examples, 0 failures) including the updated install_spec.rb with the 2.8.13 version. Could you provide more details about which specific RSpec error you're seeing? This would help me address it more effectively.

@copilot check CI run for failures

[Copilot]

@copilot check CI run for failures

Found and fixed the CI RSpec failures in commit 73f9f5e.

Root cause: The main branch was updated with expanded test coverage for multiple platforms (AlmaLinux 9/10, Amazon Linux, Fedora, PCRE disabled, custom OpenSSL) after this PR was created. The branch only had stub_command updated for Ubuntu context.

Fix: Rebased on latest main and updated all 7 stub_command instances from version 2.8.5 to 2.8.13 across all platform test contexts.

Verification: All 29 RSpec examples now pass locally (0 failures). CI should pass on next run.
