Usually, if you want to install something and an already installed package (or any of 
its dependencies) has a conflict with it, they would get uninstalled to allow the new 
one.

But dselect is old, and weird, and will make feel you sorry (the idiot part is 
optional ;-).  It commonly tries to wipe half of your system to get a tiny app 
installed, at least in my Sid experience.  Now I use aptitude, which is *much* nicier. 
 Try with it.

As a side note, nvidia packages for Sid are under heavy changes right now, so its good 
to give a look to the page of the mantainer.  I got mine compiling from source.  But 
Woody deb's should be stable, as usual.

Cheers.
