The process you describe seems easy enough but when I type that with the package name (and I have no idea what the package name is so I used the folder name) I got this
[localhost:~] lucianr% gnutar xzvf {irc2.10.3l}.tar.gz
tar (child): Cannot open archive irc2.10.3l.tar.gz: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
gnutar: Child returned status 2
gnutar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
