Hi Henning,
GHC-10.1 still ships a new major release of `base`, so we will still need to bump `base` bounds concurrently with this upgrade for now. But the efforts of the reinstallable base project have meant that it is more and more viable to have one version of `base` that supports more versions of GHC. We haven't made of release of `base` that has this property yet though.
It might be possible to release a minor version of GHC-9.14's base that is compatible with GHC-10.1.
Note that the known names patch will be in 10.2, and that will make everything much easier.
Cheers,
Teo

I started to compile a bunch of my packages. I run immediately into
version bounds issues with respect to "base". It seems that making "base"
a library independent from GHC is not yet part of GHC-10.0?
