Thank you, Tormod.
This is still a (very) minor anomaly in Ubuntu Trusty on 2014-03-24 CDT.
The Debian bug report (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=681613) shows:
Found in version xscreensaver/5.15-3
Fixed in version xscreensaver/5.22-1
The Ubuntu Trusty versions (common) of xscreensaver is currently
5.15-3ubuntu1. So, it appears that the Debian fix has not yet been
propagated to the Ubuntu repository.

Title:
apt-get remove xscreensaver >>> "No such file or directory"
Status in “xscreensaver” package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in “xscreensaver” package in Debian:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Running in Trusty Alpha 2 up-to-date.
Package: xscreensaver 5.15-3ubuntu1
Version of apt: 0.9.14.1ubuntu2
Subject file: /usr/bin/xscreensaver
Script:
set -x
sudo apt-get -y remove xscreensaver
sudo apt-get -y install xscreensaver
which xscreensaver
sudo apt-get -y remove xscreensaver
The execution of `which` returns the status that the file does exist.
Sometime during the remove execution, some subordinate process goes
looking for it after it was already removed by another subprocess.
I reported this against the package definition itself because I have
never seen apt get confused before (my best guess). Please note that
this is a minor issue and has no significant impact to Trusty
operations.
