Installing THC-Hydra 7.0

THC just released a new version of Hydra (URL http://thc.org/thc-hydra/), a very fast network logon cracker which support many different services (so the website says). I decided to install this on my home laptop. On Ubuntu, you will need to compile the source code provided at URL http://www.thc.org/releases/hydra-7.0-src.tar.gz

I proceeded to untar the source code and when I did the ./configure command, a list of libraries that Hydra requires was missing from my laptop. I only managed to install some of the libraries with the command:

sudo apt-fast install libpq-dev libsvn-dev libssh-dev

However, when I ran the ./configure command again, not all libraries were installed (I couldn't' figure out which ones they wanted). The output I got after the second ./configure was:

Starting hydra auto configuration ...

Hydra will be installed into .../bin of: /usr/local
(change this by running ./configure --prefix=path)

Writing Makefile.in ...
now type "make"

I then proceeded to issue the make && sudo make install command to compile and install the program.

The program seems to work and I hope somebody out there reading this can help me with the missing "NOT found, module..." errors.
