Many of David Carlisle's more substantial packages stand on their own, or as part of the LaTeX latex-tools set; this set contains: Making dotless 'j' characters for fonts that don't have them; A method for combining the capabilities of longtable and tabularx; An environment for including Plain TeX in LaTeX documents; A jiffy to remove counters from other counters' reset lists (now obsolete as it has been incorporated into the LaTeX format); A jiffy to create 'slashed' characters for physicists.
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.
