How do I upgrade Gnome Files (nautilus) in Ubuntu Gnome 16.04

I was using Ubuntu Gnome 15.10 and had upgrade gnome shell via ppa to 3.18. Yesterday I updated my distro to 16.04 and was surprised to find files is now version 3.14!

How can I get the latest version?


Solution 1:

You can add the gnome3 repository to your system and upgrade.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Worked for me.
