Is there a way to tell the update to ignore the following files?

 — /etc/passwd
 — /etc/group

I have in the file /etc/mtree/special.local:

 ./etc/group                     type=file mode=0644 ignore
 ./etc/passwd                    type=file mode=0644 ignore

but the last update step prompts to inspect those files I want to leave
unchanged.
