Sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
Sudo ppa-purge ppa: webupd8team/nemo
Ppa: gwendal-lebihan-dev/cinnamon-nightly

Now, we need to add Cinnamon PPA, update the index of the local repository, and install the Cinnamon package. Like this:

Sudo add-apt-repository ppa: tsvetko. tsvetkov/cinnamon
Sudo apt-get update
Sudo apt-get install cinnamon

If you do not like the new version, enter the following command for rollback:

Sudo ppa-purge ppa: tsvetko. tsvetkov/cinnamon
