Linux "Klik is unique among software installation systems for Linux, in that each package installed through klik is self-contained, isolated from the rest of the operating system. Klik isn't a package management system; rather it's an application that lets you download and run software without installing it."

A much more interesting complement to apt than CNR.

Why? CNR on Ubuntu should be vastly more seamless than Klik could ever be, because CNR is a frontend for Ubuntu's APT repositories, whereas Klik doesn't know anything about how to make a package integrate nicely on Ubuntu (i.e. place its launcher in the right section of the Applications menu).

If by "interesting" you mean "less likely to work well," then I agree.
