      Didn't -devel used to be ahead of the other branch which I used to think of as stable?

      haproxy-devel is currently 0.52_7
      haproxy          is currently 0.52_8

      which is the right/best/rightest version to use?

        Almost always, the answer is the regular version. Development happens in -devel that can make it unstable at times. It could also be built against a newer version of haproxy but with the same frontend/GUI code.

        The only time to use -devel is if you know for certain that -devel contains a feature you require that is not present in the regular version, and you are OK with possible instability.
