*.diff.bz2 are just diff files. If you already downloaded insight, and
you've been patching them, then download and apply the diffs: it's much
faster.

If you have not downloaded insight at all before, you must grab the huge
tarball "insight-VERSION.tar.bz2". It contains ALL the sources required
for running insight. Please read the FAQ for answers to common questions
(like "Why is it so big?" and "Can't I use my preinstalled version of
Tcl?").

Yes, that's exactly what it is. It is a required component for gdb.
