Issue with Next/Stagning ppa

[HadiM]

First you should not use ppa instead you're able to fix problem by
yourself... Now if you want to come back to normal distribution without
ppa. You can use an app called ppa-purge. You can install it with sudo
apt-get install ppa-purge. Then to revert a ppa, use this: sudo
ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging to remove staging ppa for example.

In term of stability, I will strongly suggest you to only use gnome3 and
gnome3-next ppa. staging ppa should not be used by a normal user, except if
you know exactly what you're doing.

Hope it helps

Bye
