You are missing the 'devel' companion to the libjpeg-turbo package,
which contains the header files, among other things.
As root or via sudo, you should run:
yum install libjpeg-turbo-devel
at the Linux (not R) command line.
That should solve the problem. Additional information is also available in the R
Installation and Administration Manual in Appendix A:
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html#Essential-and-useful-other-programs-under-a-Unix_002dalike
Also, as an FYI, there is a Fedora specific R e-mail list at:
https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-fedora
You should subscribe to and post there with any follow ups or future Fedora
specific R queries.
