System.Configuration and System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager issue

[pamanes]

Description

I have a .Net Framework Console Project in .Net 4.6.1 with a reference to a class library in .Net Standard 2.0.

Both projects use class ConnectionStringSettings from System.Configuration.

The console project has a reference to System.Configuration 4.0 (just plain assembly reference) and the class library from nuget package System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager 4.7.0 and it all works fine.

The moment I upgrade the .net standard class library's nuget package System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager from 4.7.0 to 7.0 the compiler throws an error in the .Net Framework 4.6.1 console project:

Error CS0433 The type 'ConnectionStringSettings' exists in both 'System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager, Version=7.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51' and 'System.Configuration, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'

ANY tips are greatly appreciated.

Configuration

VS2022 version 17.4.2
OS: Win10 64 bit

Regression?

all works fine if I leave version 4.7.0 of System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager in the class library project.
