Cannot update packages on F8

# yum install R-devel

should do what you need. If you install via RPMS, in order to 
install/compile CRAN packages from source, you also need the headers and 
related files, which are in the 'devel' RPMS.

This is also the case for other applications on RH/FC/F Linux.

If you use:

   yum list R-*

you will see the other R related RPMS that are available via the Fedora 
repos.

HTH,
