Joseph if you can have a look, maybe there is some missing packages in iso:

I just pushed a cinnamon package that should fix the problem.

The fix was to add a provides virtual-notification-daemon to cinnamon.  This prevents the installer from pulling in gnome-shell.

@ Joseph
Do you know a method to test it?
Comment 6 Joseph Wang 2013-12-22 18:38:26 CET 
Try this (after waiting a day for the servers to update)

set up your machine to get updated from cauldron

urpme cinnamon task-cinnamon task-gnome gnome-shell
urpme --auto-orphans

Then do a

urpmi task-cinnamon

if everything works, the download should not include any gnome components
