I tried using sudo apt-get -f install. After using it, I attempted sudo dkpg -i googleplaydownloader_1.7-1_all.deb once more. Yet, I got some errors as in the following.

Help me overcome these errors and make a successful install of the google play downloader.
Update 1:
I have downloaded python-ndg-httpclient from here. I tried installing it with this command: sudo dpkg -i python-ndg-httpsclient_0.3.2-1_all.deb. This time I have encountered with another set of dependency problem. And I wonder how long it will go! The following are the errors.
