	Thanks: that is useful information.


I would delete the package from http://repc.org/ because (1) you are
putting Stata to a test, (2) if the package is updated at both places,
-adoup- will (unnecessarily) install it twice, and (3) the packages may
not always be the same. Stata should handle (3) properly, too, but only
if the names of the files provided by each are different. They may not
be, and then Michael would have a mish-mash.
	Yes, that last point was my main concern.


Type

        . ado dir dpredict
        [22] dpredict at http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/d:
             installed package is up to date

        [23] dpredict at http://repec.org/bocode/d:
             installed package is up to date

Then type

        . ado uninstall [23]

The numbers shown are merely suggestive.
(Indeed.) Those commands have resolved the issue. Thanks for your help!
