Installing Squeak2.8 on Linux question?

It appears that when installing Squeak 2.8 on Linux you are asked to download 3 files:

Squeak-2.8pre3-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.gz
Squeak-2.8pre3-image.tar.gz
Squeak-2-sources.tar.gz

The file: Squeak-2-sources.tar.gz is suppose to contain 
Squeak-2/SqueakV2.sources BUT after I 'un-gzipped' and tried to 'untar'
it, I found it wasn't a 'tar' archive.  It's actually the file:
SqueakV2.sources.  I ended up manually placing and renaming it as:
//usr/local/lib/squeak/SqueakV2.sources.

Am I missing something?  Isn't INSTALL supposed to handle this?
