I recently installed Linux alongside Windows (dual boot). When I tried to install Chrome by downloading the latest installer from
here, I got the following error:
$ sudo dpkg -i ./google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
(Reading database ... 219479 files and directories currently installed.)

Thanks to the blog post from
here, the solution is straightforward. To satisfy the dependencies, execute the following command and re-execute the dpkg command shown above.
$ sudo apt-get -f install
That's all :)
