There's engrampa, which does not conflict at > all with file-roller. Its all moot anyway as cinnamon is, at the moment, uninstallable! It fails here 'Failed to fetch http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gobby-infinote/gobby-0.5_0.4.94-5.1_i386.deb 403 Forbidden' You can try 'at-get --fix-missing' but it still fails.
