I was about to install mongodb on Linux Mint 19.1 (Tessa) via .deb file but when I checked the packages to be removed, I found this:

Screenshot of changes required

To install the following changes are required:
To be removed: curl
To be removed: libcurl4
To be removed: php-curl
To be removed: php7.2-curl
To be removed: virtualbox-6.0
To be installed: libcurl3

Many packages I need are going to be deleted, is this true or is it a bug? Can I just ignore this and install mongodb?

It looks like you are installing the MongoDB package for Ubuntu 16.04, which requires libcurl3 (and conflicts with libcurl4).

For Linux Mint 19.1 you should instead be installing the MongoDB package for Ubuntu 18.04 which uses libcurl4.
