tkdiff already exists as a separate package. The reason tkcvs provides it as well is that tkcvs usually requires a very specific version of tkdiff. Originally, I did depend on the normal tkdiff package, but it resulted in a lot of problems because the tkdiff package was too old. It's perfectly possible to install the tkdiff package without tkcvs, or am I misunderstanding you? One thing I could do is to have tkcvs dpkg-divert tkdiff, rather than conflict with it...
