I have not used Module::Starter so I just installed it to test your issue and I had the same problem

The solution is to install Software::License then do the build.

I found that answer here om PM. Module::Build - could not create MYMETA files

Update: I should note that changing 'Artistic_2_0' to 'Artistic_2' as first suggested in that thread did not work for me, but installing the Software::License module did resolve that error.
