Why is apt trying to get me to uninstall GIMP (amongst other things) when trying to install ardour?

The repositories list from your machine miss updates: disco-security and disco-updates.

You have to open Software & Updates (software-properties-gtk), switch to Updates tab to enable them.

Then install all upgrades and GIMP with Ardour:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install gimp arduor
