Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libgdal1h : Depends: libarmadillo4 but it is not going to be installed

Solution
This line in the Dockerfile is probably causing the problem:
RUN echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty main universe" > /etc/apt/sources.list
You are here replacing the content of the file /etc/apt/sources.list by only one line. Then apt-get is unable to install the required dependencies because of these missing lines.
If you replace the line by the following, the build is working fine:
RUN echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty main universe" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
As a side note, I'm not sure why you are recreating the /etc/apt/sources.list file from scratch. The one provided in the ubuntu:trusty image already contains the default ones from ubuntu.com. You could simplify your Dockerfile like this:
FROM ubuntu:trusty
