[yocto] LIC_FILES_CHKSUM issue

[Frans Meulenbroeks]

Hi,

I was porting a recipe from OE to yocto and bumped into a
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM  error.
I get a message about  LIC_FILES_CHKSUM

Checked the ref man
(http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/poky-ref-manual/poky-ref-manual.html#usingpoky-specifying-LIC_FILES_CHKSUM)
added this:
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://COPYING; md5=xxxx"
in the hope to get the checksum.
However I don't get one, so I run md5sum on the COPYING file myself
and replace xxxx with that value.

No success though, I still get:

No idea on how to resolve this.
