This package transparently supplies the "GHC.ByteOrder" API as provided in @base-4.11.0.0@ for legacy GHC releases which didn't provide it yet (i.e. GHC 7.0 through GHC 8.2).
This release reexports [GHC.ByteOrder from base](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.11.1.0/docs/GHC-ByteOrder.html) via Cabal's @reexported-modules@ mechanism. For GHC 8.2 and earlier a different release of @ghc-byteorder@ (with the same minor version) is eligible by the Cabal solver with a backported "GHC.ByteOrder" module.
In order to use this compatibility layer, simply declare a dependency on @ghc-byteorder@ in your @.cabal@ package description like so
> build-depends: ghc-byteorder ^>= 4.11.0.0
And your code will be able to access this respective API version of the module via the usual
> import GHC.ByteOrder
mechanism.
