Gnome Classic for 15.04?

Question

"No candidate" when I try to install Gnome Classic on 15.04. Will that change? If not, what other "low-tech," lower-demanding UI options do I have for my older, weaker computer with 15.04?

An official Ubuntu based distribution is Ubuntu GNOME 15.04.

GNOME Classic session is included. To try it, choose it from the Sessions option on the login screen.

You can use the GNOME3 PPA and update GNOME3 with these commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Open a terminal an run this command:

Logout and select your preferred classic session and login back.
