How to install gvim?

I have done the following:

sudo apt-get install vim-gnome

But I get the following:

vim-gnome : Depends: libruby1.8 (>= 1.8.7.352) but 1.8.6.111-2ubuntu1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I've done:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Contents of my /etc/apt/sources.list file:

deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric main restricted
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric main restricted

deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu oneiric-security multiverse
deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu oneiric-security multiverse

But all to no avail. I always get the same error above.

What can I do to resolve?

On Ubuntu 20.04 (since vim-gnome was removed in 19.10):

sudo apt install vim-gtk3

The following worked for me:

run this

sudo apt-get update 

and then run

sudo apt-get install vim-gnome 

You'll need to check your sources. I see that libruby1.8 1.8.7.352-2 is available through main while it seems that the newest version you have is: 1.8.6.111-2ubuntu1. This probably means that you dist-upgrade failed or that you still need to update your sources.

$ apt-cache policy libruby1.8
libruby1.8:
  Installed: 1.8.7.352-2
  Candidate: 1.8.7.352-2
  Version table:
 *** 1.8.7.352-2 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

in Ubuntu 16.04 it should be:

sudo apt update

and then

sudo apt install vim-gnome

What worked for me :

sudo apt remove vim-common
sudo apt-get install vim-gnome
