- Update to 20170517 - Add LICENSE

* Add --automatic option. This option sets automatic flag for the package.
* Delete --noindex option, add --index option. When pkg_replace checks the dependencies before building the target packages, do "make package-depends-list" as default. This is more strictly checking the dependencies.
