Is this on Jessie?  It looks like one or both of those packages are
broken.  We don't provide libdrm-dev or linux-libc-dev, so this isn't
caused by Trinity.

That being said, if it is a temporary breakage sometimes the following
command sequence helps to fix the issue:
apt-get update
apt-get -f install
