It isn't so much about downloading a package again and again as it is about making sure you have all the dependencies and binaries you need for your new software to work properly. If you use the terminal or the RPM (redhat package manager), you don't have to worry about these things.

I'm assuming you mean install it, since before you mentioned you had already downloaded it. If you really want to install the tar file, you will need to compile it. There are a many tutorials out there for this, like this one:

However, you may still run into a problem with this if you do not have GCC (the compiler) and other compiling necessities installed. If you don't have these things, you will just have to download them, so again, you are probably better off just trying to make the terminal or package manager method work.
