https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/30818
Description:
<!-- Don't request update of package. We have a script for that. https://alpha.de.repo.voidlinux.org/void-updates/void-updates.txt . However, a quality pull request may help. -->
### System
* xuname:
Void 5.11.18_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rrFF
* package:
xscreensaver-6.00_1
Xscreensaver should depend on perl, since it relies on perl scripts; eg: when running a screensaver that needs to display text (eg phosphor) xscreensaver tries to run ``/usr/libexec/xscreensaver/xscreensaver-text``, but it fails, so (eg) phosphor displays only an error message.

Arch also pulls in a dependency to `perl-LWP`: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/xscreensaver/
