Linspire's CNR Goes Multi-Distro

Posted by kdawson on from the embrace-and-extend dept.

S3Indiana writes with news that Linspire is opening its Click 'N Run installation software to other Linux distributions. After 5 years of development on CNR, the new site cnr.com will be a single source repository for Linux users. Distributions to be supported initially during 2007 are (alphabetically): Debian, Fedora, Freespire, Linspire, OpenSUSE, and Ubuntu; other distributions will follow. See the FAQ and the screenshots for more details.

    CNR uses standard .deb and .rpm files, but shields the user from the complexity of these packaging systems.

    heh, wicked.
