R is good, and I love it. However, fitting distributions is a pain,
because you basically have to do it by hand. So, I use EasyFit:

FWIW, easyfit runs quite well under the wine version supplied by
Fedora. As a test, I just downloaded it, double clicked on the installer
which fired up wine, and now the test version works without obvious
glitches (but I only tested it with some fake data).
