Package: dconf, dconf-tools

Hi all,
There are two different tools, dconf (for getting hardware info
and comparing it with other systems) and the dconf-tools (which are
for saving and manipulating desktop .configuration files) as shown
below :-
There seems to be though a conflict (which I don't understand why )
between the two packages as both are different. Can somebody explain ?
I do see the conflict line in dconf-tools
'Conflicts: dconf'
Damn it, you’re right. This goes directly against Policy.
Leo, what do you think could be done about this? Since dconf is not a
very widespread tool, I’d appreciate if you could rename the binary -
and maybe also the package name, since it’s confusing for users who look
for GNOME-related packages and stomp on a sysadmin tool.
Cheers,

Hi all,
Any update on this, I just updated/upgraded an update to dconf-tools
but nothing seems to be happening with dconf :(
d-conf (0.7.5-3) unstable; urgency=low
* Re-enable dconf-editor.
