After selecting what to remove, does a dependancy screen come up in
dselect? That might be what you are describing above, but can't tell for

You can circumvent the dependancy screen by typing Q (capitol Q) at the
main screen after selecting which packages you want removed. This will
tell deselect to bypass the dependancy screen.
