There is seemingly no problem with the package dependencies, xscreensaver
does not depend on perl-524 anymore.
Could you try installing/updating specific package versions?

I have noticed that pkg is sometimes not able to cope well with updates
involving deprecation.
It attempts to resolve the dependency to the deprecated packages and update
this latter although it should be dropped.

Explicitly providing the versions you want to install on the command line
usually circumvents the issue.
