Kurt, 

Is may be easier to locate an rpm to do the job.
You can try: 
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/1981298/com/libjpeg-6b-34.i386.r 
pm.html
if you don't have a CD.
I believe there is also a facility on Fedora named YUM which makes it eaven 
easier to install needed libraries and any dependecies.
You may also want to look at the 'FGS Linux installer' at maptools.org or 
the rpm's at mappinghacks.com.
