~/hydra-8.0# make

Many thanks for your help in advance!!!

Did yourecompile with -fPIC as mentioned in the error?

no, how do i do that...? : )

I'm presuming you have all the dependencies installed

apt-get install libssl-dev libssh-dev libidn11-dev libpcre3-dev \
libgtk2.0-dev libmysqlclient-dev libpq-dev libsvn-dev \
firebird2.1-dev libncp-dev

Now, because i'm sure you are reading the readme file that comes with the git download, you know you need to go to your git directory (thx-hydra which is where you run make) and then run

Code:

---

./configure CFLAGS=-fPIC CXXFLAGS=-fPIC FFLAGS=-fPIC

---

Which should complete without error and then run make && make install

if this can possibly be of help or input :
I state not to be an expert :
I did a test installation of hydra 8.1 (thc-hydra-master.zip FROM github) on kali 1.09x64 in --live mode and seems to have no errors !!

zimmaro, thanks. I have tried that too but no luck either.

staticnode, thank you but it's the same...I have installed hydra8 on two other machines but on this one it's a ****.

currently running hydra7.5 without a problem...


Edit:
Swearing

Problem SOLVED! thanks for your time!

1 check sourcelist is correct
2 apt-get update %% apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade
3 (maybe you will get automatic update of what you wanted to install or upgrade – in my case – hydra-8.0)
3 make sure you have ncurses-5.7 or ncurses-5.9 installed
4 cd (hydra-8.0)
5 run “make” (if the error message is still there-6)
6 go to /usr/lib/libcurses.a and delete this file
7 go to /root/ncurses-5.9/lib find libcurses.a and move it to /usr/lib/ (replace)
8 go to – cd hydra-8.0 and run “make” again
9 problem should be solved
