Wheezy and Jessie/testing 7.2.. Have same prob with Mint 15 and verious 2 year old Ubuntus.
It's not the fault of Trinity devs at all that I can tell. Yes, I do mess with repos and possibly make mistakes that way.
It's a "feature" of later Wheezy versions of apt-get. Somebody decided that Debian needed to be "cleaned up" every time you install something, and based on researching this on Debian messageboards, the majority insist on believing this is a good idea. Tough luck for me I guess.
So, for example, if I try to upgrade my totally obsolete Iceweasel or Firefox, apt-get will insist on removing Trinity, Xorg and countless other vitally important items. In fact, I can't install or upgrade anything now.

I still use 3.5.13.2. However, I have not added anything from Trinity repos in a long time because a Debian developer screwed up apt-get such that it will remove X and Trinity and a lot else if I try to install anything at all.
??? Two years ago? In Sid? I update/full-upgrade every day or two. My system remains intact.

I don't know for sid, but I had a similar problem with Wheezy (at the time stable) because I had had to add repros from unstable for some libraries.
For a while I no more updated because that would remove Trinity. Removing these unstable repositories I could again update without problem.
So he may have a mix of version repositories that create the problem.
