   I just removed 1.04.2; readers should get 1.04.3 instead. (I
removed it so no one will get 1.04.2 by mistake.)

This is indeed the way to do it, or:

   $ uncompress ../star-*.3*Z | tar xvf -

   It is also worth mentioning that all files will end up in the
current directory, so create and move to a suitable subdirectory first
(e.g. ./star or ./star-sources).
