My point is that it's not part of the standard install as it is with 
RHEL5 and Fedora.  If I do

yum list all | grep wireshark
wireshark.x86_64                 1.2.15-1.el6_0.1 
@rhel-x86_64-workstation-6
wireshark.i686                   1.2.15-1.el6_0.1 
rhel-x86_64-workstation-6

Only the wireshark packages show up.
