## Changes in 0.8.8.1 [2023.03.05]
 - Fix GHC 9.4 build error that was accidentally introduced in
   `base-orphans-0.8.8`.

## Changes in 0.8.8 [2023.03.05]
 - Backport new instances from GHC 9.6.1/`base-4.18.0.0`:
   * `Functor` instances for the `(,,,,) a b c d`, `(,,,,,) a b c d e`, and
     `(,,,,,) a b c d e f` tuple types.
   * `Eq` and `Ord` instances for `Generically`

## Changes in 0.8.7 [2022.08.11]
 - Backport new instances from GHC 9.2.2/`base-4.16.1.0`:
   * `Ix` instances for various integral types in `Foreign.C.Types`,
     `Foreign.Ptr`, and `System.Posix.Types`. For a complete list of such types,
     see https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/7385.
 - Backport a bugfix for the `Ord1 Down` instance from GHC 9.4/`base-4.17` such
   that it now uses reverse sort order.

## Changes in 0.8.6 [2021.10.29]

   introduced in GHC 9.2/`base-4.16`
 - Remove the backported `Eq1` and `Ord1` instances for `Fixed` that were
   introduced in `base-orphans-0.8.5`. While these briefly appeared in a
   release candidate version of GHC 9.2.1, they were ultimately removed from
   the final 9.2.1 release. This release of `base-orphans` synchronizes with
   that change.

   scope, and you won't have to import a module which is deprecated on recent
   GHC releases.
