Install the pre requisites first

sudo apt-get install -y libappindicator1 fonts-liberation
sudo apt-get -y install dbus-x11 xfonts-base xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi xfonts-cyrillic xfonts-scalable
RUN apt-get -y install libxss1 lsb-release xdg-utils

Try installing with following commands

sudo dpkg -i --force-depends google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install -f

You can cross-check the installation by running the following command

google-chrome --headless --disable-gpu --no-sandbox --dump-dom http://example.com/
