Hi Bryan,
just checked and was able to install as expected.
Actually for you libxrandr-dev should be on 1.5.0 from trusty-updated as
well.
The change is out for a while (2016-07-29), but to be sure you could run
'apt-get update' once more.
Then check why your system isn't going for libxrandr-dev 2:1.5.0-1~trusty1
with apt-cache policy.

IMHO it should these days look like:

root@trusty-tests:~# apt-cache policy libxrandr-dev
libxrandr-dev:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 2:1.5.0-1~trusty1
  Version table:
     2:1.5.0-1~trusty1 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64
Packages
     2:1.4.2-1 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
root@trusty-tests:~# apt-cache policy libxrandr2
libxrandr2:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 2:1.5.0-1~trusty1
  Version table:
     2:1.5.0-1~trusty1 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64
Packages
     2:1.4.2-1 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages

Kind Regards,
Christian
