Thank you gentlemen, I have a working GUI Vim now on Ubuntu.
One last problem.
gvim
:ver

./vim -g
:ver
VIM - Vi IMproved 8.1 (2018 May 18, compiled Nov 7 2018 10:51:26)
Included patches: 1-511
Compiled by me
Huge version with GTK2 GUI. Features included (+) or not (-):
I would have thought running the make install should have fixed that up.
$ ls -la /usr/bin/gvim
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Nov 5 19:02 /usr/bin/gvim -> /etc/alternatives/gvim*
I had to (I did a --prefix=/usr):
unlink /usr/bin/gvim
make install
Then it setup my gvim:
$ ls -la /usr/bin/gvim
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Nov 7 12:48 /usr/bin/gvim -> vim*

Try this:
# First install package needed to build vim
$ sudo apt-get build-dep vim-gnome
# Then build your own vim from sources
$ cd vim
$ rm src/auto/config.cache
$ ./configure --with-features=huge --enable-gui=gtk2
$ make - j8
$ make test
$ sudo make install
or configure with gtk3 with:
$ ./configure --with-features=huge --enable-gui=gtk3

Dominique
