My build failed with

RPM build errors:
    File not found: /root/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/haproxy-1.5-dev25.1.x86_64/usr/share/man/man1/haproxy.1.gz

I had to change

%{_mandir}/man1/%{name}.1.gz

to

%{_mandir}/man1/%{name}.1

No clue is this fix really needed? But it worked for me.

Thanks, haven't noticed that before. As soon as my build is running again I'll see if I'll incorporate the fix.
