(Get the code!)
can confirm this on a fresh oneiric release on both 64-bit and 32-bit, no encrypted homedir. Freshly install the OS, download google chrome stable and try to double click on it; as reported above, software centre opens and shows that message and no offered actions to resolve the situation.
I managed to get it installed through a lot of messing about with synaptic. (next and last machine to install, i try the dpkg -i <debfile> ; apt-get -f install method above.)
Clearly software center should be able to do this and resolve the dependencies.
To reproduce: Freshly install oneiric desktop; try to install google chrome by downloading and opening the debfile from google. seems completely repeatable.
