download ndiswrapper-common and install it too, I just checked and that should be all you need... but if you get the dependency error again just download the package it says and install it... keep going till no more are needed.
Once you are connected to the net dependency checking will be taken care of by the package manager. It's just fiddly having to do it manually till then.
