We are requiring the haproxy user to be a system user to avoid a clash
with a regular user. The UID range for system users is 100-999 by
default, so 42454 is outside it. There is no policy on Debian enforcing
this behaviour, but many packages follow this scheme. If you don't have
regular users, you could just extend the range in /etc/adduser.conf.
