Hi,

as far as I understand it and following the INSTALL file you don't need
to call configure in editline/.
I just compiled the whole thing on 64-bit and it works properly. Here
are my steps:

cd cwb-2.2.b99-RC1

Edit "config.mk" and adjust paths according to your needs, then:

make clean
make depend
make all
make install

Hope that helps

Cheers
Dieter
