It doesn't preclude it, but it does render CONFFILES fairly useless.

It looks like the CONFFILES_micro = "" in this particular recipe was
added by me in 2b4ab236.  I guess I probably did this to avoid having
nonexistent files show up in CONFFILES (since micro doesn't ship stuff
like motd at all).  I don't recall whether I did this just for neatness
or whether OE was actually issuing a diagnostic for that situation.

I guess it might make some sense to just set CONFFILES_micro = ""
globally in micro.conf rather than doing it in individual recipes.

What do you mean?
