here's what happens when i try to install protonmail-bridge:
Selecting previously unselected package protonmail-bridge. (Reading database ... 1534488 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack .../protonmail-bridge_1.0.3-1_amd64.deb ... Unpacking protonmail-bridge (1.0.3-1) ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of protonmail-bridge: protonmail-bridge depends on qt5-default; however: Package qt5-default is not installed. protonmail-bridge depends on libqt5designer5; however: Package libqt5designer5 is not installed. protonmail-bridge depends on libqt5multimediawidgets5; however: Package libqt5multimediawidgets5 is not installed. protonmail-bridge depends on libqt5quickwidgets5; however: Package libqt5quickwidgets5 is not installed.

Processing triggers for desktop-file-utils (0.22-1ubuntu1.1) ... Processing triggers for mime-support (3.54ubuntu1.1) ... Errors were encountered while processing: protonmail-bridge RESULT=1
so let's install the dependencies, beginning with qt5-default:
Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these: The following packages have unmet dependencies: protonmail-bridge : Depends: libqt5designer5 but it is not going to be installed Depends: libqt5multimediawidgets5 but it is not going to be installed Depends: libqt5quickwidgets5 but it is not installable qt5-default : Depends: qtbase5-dev but it is not going to be installed N: Ignoring file 'brave-trusty.listgrep' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension N: Ignoring file 'brave*' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has no filename extension N: Ignoring file 'brave-trusty.listgrep' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension N: Ignoring file 'brave*' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has no filename extension N: Ignoring file 'brave-trusty.listgrep' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension N: Ignoring file 'brave*' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has no filename extension E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
so let's do what it suggests and run apt-get -f install:

see the problem? among other things, i believe that xorg is crucial to full enjoyment of the tde experience.

If you can't find a provider for it in Ubuntu you could try switching to Devuan or Debian.
libqt5quickwidgets5: Installed: (none) Candidate: 5.3.2-4 Version table: 5.7.1-2+b2 0 -500 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stretch/main amd64 Packages 5.3.2-4 0 2000 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie/main amd64 Packages

(please again forgive the top posting -- that's part of why i'm trying to set this up, so i can use kmail with protonmail.)
the problem isn't an inability to find the packages, it's the packages' demand that half or more of my desktop get uninstalled if i install them.

You don't have a source for libqt5quickwidgets5 which is needed by protonmail-bridge. There's no point trying to resolve the trickier problems if we know we're going to end up at a dead end without libqt5quickwidgets5.
So you need to upgrade to an Ubuntu or other distro version which contains at least libqt5quickwidgets5.
When you do so your other problems may or may not magically go away, but at least you won't be wasting time in a dead end.
