Update or Uninstall - CSNLinux - 03-04-2018

Today I wanted to try a new appearance for XFCE Desktop.
Downloaded it through:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nikount/orta-desktop
after installing updating was advised but that didn't work

Code:
csnlinux[member=7334]CSNLinux[/member]:~$  sudo apt-get update

So is there a way to get the updates, otherwise what is the right command to un-install this package?

That PPA does not have any support for Ubuntu xenial I believe. To remove it from your desktop as needed, from Terminal:


Code:
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:nikount/orta-desktop
sudo apt-get update



You want to install packages from repositories matching your desktop release. You can find your desktop release from a terminal:


Code:
lsb_release -sc

Thanks a million.

And Xenial it is!
