All dependencies of a program

I did a "download only" of thunar but it only had one file

        thunar_1.8.2-1~18.04_amd64.deb

I would to find out all the dependencies of thunar.

I read up here, but am confused as to what works?

dpkg -I package_name should show all the relevant info, including the dependencies of the .deb file.

  dpkg -I thunar
  dpkg-deb: error: failed to read archive 'thunar': No such file or directory

package_name should be the full path to the .deb file, for example if it's in your home directory:

dpkg -I ~/thunar_1.8.2-1~18.04_amd64.deb.
