I have same issue.
What am doing is follow this post https://gnu-linux.org/quickly-edit-a-deb-package.html.
Remove dependencie gvfs-bin from file DEBIAN/control.
Now it can be installed.

sudo dpkg -i Kitematic-0.17.13_amd64.deb

PS. at your own risk

I find this program requires python2,in fact I prefer to using python3 and so I give up.

Based on the solution provided by @yue-wen , PFB the steps to tackle this hassle (DEBIAN Package unpack-edit-pack). The gnu-linux URL didn't open when I tried.
Assumption: You already downloaded the "Kitematic-0.17.13_amd64.deb" package.

1 mkdir tmp_d

2 sudo dpkg-deb -R Kitematic*.deb tmp_d # unpack/raw-extract the Debian package to tmp directory

3 edit "tmp_d/DEBIAN/control" file to remove the dependencies. For me, 1. gvfs-bin, 2. gconf2, 3. python

4 sudo dpkg-deb -b tmp_d/ Kitematic-0.17.13_amd64.deb # pack/build the Debian package using tmp directory

5 sudo dpkg -i Kitematic-0.17.13_amd64.deb # Kitematic installation

Kitematic should be installed by now. You can find it in installed applications.
