Reading package lists... Done

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 google-chrome-stable : Depends: libappindicator1 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

so i tried to Update the Kali Linux sources list so i put this

deb http://repo.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
deb-src http://repo.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free

but this doesn't work note that i have kali linux 64 bit

    The suggested apt-get -f install (-f = --fix-broken) would have done the same thing as apt --fix-broken install.

What helped me with installing libappindicator1 on Debian and in Docker as well - is installing this package manually. Also, it depends on another one libindicator7.

curl -p --insecure "http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/liba/libappindicator/libappindicator1_0.4.92-7_amd64.deb" --output libappindicator1_0.4.92-8_amd64.deb \
    && curl -p --insecure "http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libi/libindicator/libindicator7_0.5.0-4_amd64.deb" --output libindicator7_0.5.0-4_amd64.deb \
    && dpkg -i libindicator7_0.5.0-4_amd64.deb \
    && dpkg -i libappindicator1_0.4.92-8_amd64.deb \
    && rm libindicator7_0.5.0-4_amd64.deb \
    && rm libappindicator1_0.4.92-8_amd64.deb
