Description Michael Opdenacker 2022-10-25 14:55:27 UTC 
In meta/classes/create-spdx.bbclass, the SPDX_INCLUDE_PACKAGED variable is read into the "include_packaged" variable, which doesn't appear anywhere else.

As a consequence, this variable has no effect.

This could be a bug, this variable corresponding to functionality that is supposed to be implemented.

Otherwise, let's just remove the unnecessary dead code.

Doc changes will be necessary if the code is fixed and eventually does something.
