The tables.ttools package was integrated into IRAF since version 2.15.1 as utilities/nttools. The stsdas package and the rest of tables however are not part of IRAF and were separately maintained by STScI and are abandoned since 2018. They are not maintained by the iraf-community, since the sources are not available, and they contain code from the "Numerical Recipes" book which is forbidden to distribute.
