I want to replace Unity with Gnome3 in Ubuntu 14.04, I know there is a version Gnome Ubuntu but i prefer not having to reinstall Ubuntu. I guess I just must add repositories of gnome, update and install gnome-shell, but i don't know if need something more to avoid problems after with gnome extensions and other stuff. Sorry for my english.
