Assuming the package should require dependency packages, than the
above dpkg is missing a --force-depends switch.

However, see my previous reply, this workaround is as needed as gdebi on
modern Ubuntu releases.

Sure, gdebi is completely unneeded since several releases ago.

There's no need to install gdebi, assuming the OP does use the latest
LTS or latest release and even several older releases already don't
require gdebi or tricky workarounds. The OP could simply use "apt
install".

Back to the topic.

1. In general inform us what release you are using by posting the
output of

  lsb_release -rc

2. Regarding Google Chrome it's also important what architecture you
are using, so also post the output of

  uname -m

The result you should post, should look similar to:

[weremouse@moonstudio ~]$ lsb_release -rc
Release:16.04
Codename:   xenial
[weremouse@moonstudio ~]$ uname -m
x86_64

Regards,
Ralf
