The base package contains the Prelude and its support libraries, and a large collection of useful libraries ranging from data structures to parsing combinators and debugging utilities. It is specific to the GHC implementation of Haskell.
This package includes the following:
and many others.
Versions
The base package is shipped alongside the GHC compiler itself, but version numbers for the base package do not match the GHC version number. Here is a table indicating which base package versions ship with which GHC. Data is taken from GHC release notes, and, since base 4.7.0.0, the changelog.md file in the base package's source code. Only GHC versions in which the base package's version number was bumped are listed here. (Last updated Nov 2016.)
On the GHC Trac wiki, one can find a more comprehensive table of versions that includes all boot libraries.
