pkgmetagetta has dependencies on libextractor.
It looks like these dependencies are missing. (First "FATAL" line.)
If you run by hand '/usr/local/lib/fossology/agents/pkgmetagetta -i', you
should see the same error.

That's the self-test making sure everything is consistent.
By commenting out the line, you introduced an inconsistency.
I'm guessing that you have at least one server and one agent system.
If you comment it out on one system, then you must comment it out the
exact same way on every system. Otherwise, the systems are inconsistent.

Because pkgmetageta -i failed to run, the install aborted.
Further down the install (after running the -i), the install code creates
the License.bsam file. Since the install failed, you are missing this file.

Install the pkgmetageta dependencies (libextractor) and you should be
able to re-run the install successfully.
If you want, you can install libextractor first, then run 'pkgmetageta -i'
manually. If all dependencies load, then it should complete without any
problems. (You must be in group 'fossy' to run it.)
