I'm new to Gnome, and I don't really like it. So that's exactly why I installed Unity 7. So far so good, Unity works like a charm, much better than Gnome, at least this is my opinion. However, now I have 2 settings app, 2 calculators, 2 networks managers, 2 of everything. Is there any way to remove gnome 3 without messing up at all Unity? I don't really like to search an app and instead of showing up only 1 it shows at least 3 different apps with the same icon. Is there any way? Thank you!

  • I don't think so. If happens, you can reinstall that again – Kulfy Sep 15 '18 at 12:04
  • Oh okay... Thanks for the quick reply. It's removing right now! – Matt Diamond Sep 15 '18 at 12:04
  • okay it finished. It did remove some stuff, but most of the apps are still there. – Matt Diamond Sep 15 '18 at 12:06

    Reboot the system. They might disappear. If they don't, try to uninstall manually. – Kulfy Sep 15 '18 at 12:07

    I did as you said. The first command, it removed some stuff, then I removed the apps manually using the software center. Now it's all good. There is some stuff that I can't understand if I can or can't remove, but mostly is clean now. Thank you a lot for your help! – Matt Diamond Sep 15 '18 at 12:38
  • The "Duplicate" apps might have been both SNAP versions that come with a fresh Ubuntu 18.04 install, and their counterparts in the regular Ubuntu software repository that will be dependencies of the Unity desktop metapackage. – vanadium Sep 15 '18 at 13:21
