as i dig deeper inti this, i see that the qt5 packages
on which the
protonmail bridge depends themselves depend on wayland. is there a qt5 that
doesn't need wayland? that itself could be the issue.
I just did a test run:
sudo torify apt-get install wayland qt5*
and I find that I already have xwayland and several other wayland deps
installed, as well as all kinds of qt5 packages; in fact, there are more
installed than are not.
It is simpler and much shorter to give the error output:

I don't see the ProtonMail bridge listed here (but maybe I don't recognize the
name); but overall it seems that most qt5 packages work just fine with TDE,
at least on my system, which is Debian Jessie 8.x (whatever the latest
updates).
What are the packages that you want to install? I'll give them a try.
