I had this issue too.

Try to install gconf2
sudo apt install gconf2

Then do a purge of the pkg installation with
sudo dpkg --purge --force-depends

and try to install Ethereum Wallet again with
sudo dpkg -i Ethereum-Wallet-linux32-0-8-7.deb

If it doesn't work try
sudo dpkg -i --force-all Ethereum-Wallet-linux32-0-8-7.deb
