1. There is no letterspacing.sty on CTAN, only a letterspacing.tex
2.

preusse@preusse $ grep letterspa *
ANNOUNCE-2.99.0.20041023:       * letterspacing.tex (from Phil
                                  Taylor) removed for license reasons
preusse@preusse $

in fact:

This file, "letterspacing.tex", created by Philip Taylor of RHBNC
(P.Taylor <at> Mail.Rhbnc.Ac.Uk) for Kaveh Bazargan of Focal Image
(Kaveh <at> Focal.Demon.Co.Uk) may be freely distributed provided
that no changes whatsoever are made to its contents

which does not comply to the DFSG and I guess Thomas removed it too
for the reason, that no changes are allowed.

Regards,
