To install on Fedora Core 6 including postgresql support you will need the postgresql-devel package. To enable ssh for hydra, you will need to install libssh version 0.11.

On Slackware, you will receive an error:
gcc -I. -Wall -O2 -c hydra-svn.c -DLIBOPENSSL -DLIBSVN -I/usr/include/subversion-1 -I/usr/include/subversion-1
In file included from hydra-svn.c:17:

Install the apache portable runtime (apr and apr-util) version 0.9, subversion and postgresql from source. Since apr installs by default in the /usr/local/apr directory, you will need to adjust the Makefile with the following directories:
XLIBPATHS=/usr/local/apr/lib
XIPATHS=/usr/local/apr/include/apr-0

If, after compiling and installing hydra, the tool complains with one of the following messages:
hydra: error while loading shared libraries: libpq.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
hydra: error while loading shared libraries: libapr-0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
hydra: error while loading shared libraries: libssh.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
hydra: error while loading shared libraries: libaprutil-0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Then you will need to create symbolic links to the libraries mentioned in the /usr/lib directory.
