Yes, I you are right (I've upgraded it already and works fine - 400MB). I
don't know why I was under the impression that it was not going to show
Targets and ask 
"Proceed with upgrade? [Y/n]"
but first remove nvidia. I thought it was going to be like with pacman
upgrade, unless I say "Y", and in this case remove nvidia, I won't be able
to see any other updates. Obviously I was mistaken. Apologies.
I assumed if I answered "N" to freeglut and libgl-dri I would be presented
with the list of packages to upgrade except for the ones that depend on
freeglut and libgl-dri. Probably it would make dependency check harder
though.

Again apologies for wasting your time - as a penalty I'm going to send
another Server Donation :-)

Cheers
