Installing vim with ruby support (+ruby)

sudo apt-get install vim-nox;

Some package provides vim-ruby on Ubuntu, for example vim-nox.

simply:

sudo apt-get install vim-nox; will get you vim with ruby, as well as compiled in "support for scripting with Perl, Python, Ruby, and TCL but no GUI."

sudo apt-get install vim-rails will install a "selection of vimscripts that make editing Ruby on Rails applications extremely easy." but as it depends on vim-full and vim-addon-manager, it will also install the vim-gnome version of the GIU, that is "a version of vim compiled with a GNOME2 GUI and support for scripting with Perl, Python, Ruby, and TCL."
