base-orphans: Backwards-compatible orphan instances for base
base-orphans defines orphan instances that mimic instances available in later versions of base to a wider (older) range of compilers. base-orphans does not export anything except the orphan instances themselves and complements base-compat.
`base-orphans-0` is an intentional empty release. For an explanation as to why it exists, see the README.

Readme for base-orphans-0
[back to package description]base-orphans
Scope
base-orphans defines orphan instances that mimic instances available in later
versions of base to a wider (older) range of compilers. base-orphans does
not export anything except the orphan instances themselves and complements
base-compat.
About base-orphans-0
base-orphans-0 is a special release that intentionally does not export any
modules. base-orphans-0 is used when retroactively adding base-orphans
dependencies to older Hackage libraries to ensure that they cannot be built in
combination with more recent versions of base-orphans that would cause them
to break. (For example, if a package defines an orphan instance which clashes
with one in base-orphans.)

We also make an attempt to keep base-orphans building with GHC HEAD, but due
to its volatility, it may not work at any given point in time. If it doesn't,
please report it!
Patches are welcome; add tests for new code!
