Check the logs carefully.  The configure error is
ERROR:      0051:        bb.fatal("Licensing Error: LIC_FILES_CHKSUM does not match, please fix")

This one should be obvious - the checksum in your recipe does not
match the checksum of the real file in your source package.

The do_populate_lic error is a result of the first.
