It can be hard (or at least tedious) to debug mechanize scripts. LWP::Debug is deprecated. It suggests you write your own debugging handlers, set up a proxy or install Wireshark. Those are all workable solutions, but this module exists to save you some of that work.
Binary packages can be installed with the high-level tool pkgin (which can be installed with pkg_add) or pkg_add(1) (installed by default). The NetBSD packages collection is also designed to permit easy installation from source.
The pkg_admin audit command locates any installed package which has been mentioned in security advisories as having vulnerabilities.
Please note the vulnerabilities database might not be fully accurate, and not every bug is exploitable with every configuration.
Problem reports, updates or suggestions for this package should be reported with send-pr.
