No. That doesn't make sense.
Again, nvidia-settings _is_ included even with the legacy driver.

# rpm -qlp x11-video-nvidiaG01-173.14.37-21.1.i586.rpm
...snip...
/usr/bin/nvidia-settings
...snip...

Of course there is no point.
And if you do install the driver, you already _have_ nvidia-settings, no need 
to install that package as well...
That's what I already said a few times.

Then have a look:
# rpm -qlp x11-video-nvidiaG03-319.32-15.1.i586.rpm
...snip...
/usr/bin/nvidia-settings
...snip...
/usr/share/applications/nvidia-settings.desktop
...snip...
/usr/share/man/man1/nvidia-settings.1.gz
...snip...

# rpm -qlp nvidia-settings-325.15-1.3.i586.rpm 
/usr/bin/nvidia-settings
/usr/share/applications/nvidia-settings.desktop
...snip...
/usr/share/man/man1/nvidia-settings.1.gz

Do you believe me now? ;)

Kind regards,
