CLI program to download OpenBSD ISO images

Greetings, Is there any CLI program for OpenBSD that implements the steps described at https://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#Download to download and check the ISO images? I wasn't able to find anything relevant after a quick check on DuckDuckGo. I implemented a simple Perl script that

If I read correctly, the Mikrotik is using an SSLv3 certificate, which I guess shouldn't be in use anymore. My suggestion is to use local::lib to install older versions of IO::Socket::SSL and all other required dependencies, but since those will depend on older C libraries as well, it might

Re: how to install perl modules w/ dependencies that mix packages & CPAN

I'm afraid that is no such thing. My best would to search something on ports to do exactly that. If there is no repository, you might want to take a look in ways to convert Perl modules from CPAN into OpenBSD packages. I know there is an effort to build those packages automatically for Linux
