Yes, this is intended. You unpack it when you need it (with tar xfvz )
and it is also easier to handle by the packages manager.

I don't know tkdesk, but if it uses a red hat icon for tarballs, then

It you install the rpm package, it will create these directories, as
you can check with dpkg -S /usr/src/redhat.
