Hi Mike,
Save it in whatever folder you want, then go to the command line and
type the following:
tar xzvf <filename>
Where <filename> is the name of the file you downloaded.
That will extract the contents, probably into a subfolder which will
contain (most likely) instructions on compiling/installing. A tar.gz
file is more or less the Linux equivalent of a .zip file in Windows.

Hi. Your file is an archive. First, you’ll have to unpack it with ark, tar or something else. After that you usually do ./configure → make → make install and try to resolve dependencies. Did that help?
