First, please don't notify [email protected].
The problem here arises from a typo in the gammafit.pkg
file, which refers to a gammafit_lf.hlp which does not
exist. (The file which does exist is gammafit_lf.ado.)
I'll ask Kit Baum to fix the .pkg as soon as convenient.
Meanwhile, if you're desperate, you can copy the files
across one by one, say by
foreach f in gammafit.ado gammafit.hlp gammafit_lf.ado {
ssc copy `f'
}
Note that the files will be copied to your current
directory.
