No! The great thing about CNR is that it normalizes the installation process for the user WITHOUT requiring a new or altered packaging system. CNR uses standard .deb and .rpm files, but hides the complexity of this from the user. This allows developers to continue using their same methods and the different distributions to continue with their normal release management practices, yet provide their users with a much easier software management system.
