At some point there was a transitional problem due to an underlying
change of servers. If possible, please try again with the latest release
2022a.

If the data is public -and I guess it is, given the source- then yes you
can include it in a contributed function package. Basically there are
two options:
- If you desperately want to avoid the slightly more complex zipped
package format, then you could for example define a matrix holding the
copied-and-pasted data. For that you would define a private function
(i.e., not declared public) that returns a matrix, and inside the
function you would literally have that matrix defined. (You could
basically do the same thing with the series type.)
- Perhaps a better way is to go with the zipped format, and then you can
even stuff gretl data files into your package. Please see the packaging
guide (under the help menu), section 4.4 and especially chapter 5 "Zip
package details".
cheers
