Tormod, a quick response to be going on with:

I added your PPA to my sources list, and in Synaptic Package Manager
selected the 6 xscreensaver packages at version 5.19-1~pre for upgrade.
On upgrading I get this error:

E: /var/cache/apt/archives/xscreensaver-data_5.19-1~pre_amd64.deb: trying to 
overwrite '/usr/share/man/man6/distort.6x.gz', which is also in package 
xscreensaver-data-extra 5.15-2ubuntu1
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/xscreensaver-gl_5.19-1~pre_amd64.deb: trying to 
overwrite '/usr/share/man/man6/antinspect.6x.gz', which is also in package 
xscreensaver-gl-extra 5.15-2ubuntu1

The full output from Synaptic Package Manager is here:

However, when I selected the two that did not upgrade, and told it to
upgrade them again, it worked.

A preview of the VidWhacker screensaver now works, but I have not tested
any further than that yet.
