No, that's the name of the executable.
What happens if you "locate tshark"? At least some RPM-based systems have, in an attempt to maximize confusion, packaged the non-GUI parts of Wireshark as "wireshark" and the GUI parts as "wireshark-gnome", or something like that; perhaps Centos 5.2 (or the version of Red Hat on which it's based) did that, so that you got the command-line TShark installed, but not the GUI Wireshark.
