It is the opposite.

The package you want to install is _older_ than what is included with Fedora
20. Watch this:
 
  $ rpmdev-vercmp 0.18.0-2.fc20 0.15.0-4mgc3
  0.18.0-2.fc20 > 0.15.0-4mgc3

As mentioned before, _if_ you really want to try out that _older_ version,
download _both_ dconf-editor _and_ dconf packages. Not only dconf-editor.

Also note that "yum" will not let you install those packages, because
it would be a _downgrade_ to older packages, and the newer "dconf" is
installed already. You would need to downgrade using "rpm", for example,
(since removing installed packages may be a problem due to dependencies).
