Conflict between dconf and dconf-tools ?

[shirish शिरीष]

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 :-

$ aptitude show dconf

 DConf is a low-level key/value database designed for storing desktop
 environment settings.

 This package contains the command line tools. Note that DConf is not
 connected with the older Debian package named dconf.

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'

Is it because of the similar/same names or something else as well.
Also dconf does not have a homepage (URL) associated with it.
