I see. The existing feeds/packages/net/nginx/Makefile already lists the 
files under /etc/nginx that ship in the package in its conffiles 
definition, but this doesn't result in a keep file in the package because 
include/package-ipkg.mk will only add entries to a keep file when they 
aren't present as files in the package.

Is this intentional? The net effect is that changes to conffiles aren't 
preserved across sysupgrade when default conffiles are present in a 
package. If that's the case, what's the point of even listing these files 
in conffiles?
