I got a similar cascade of error messages. In all cases, I told zypper, perhaps
a bit hastily, to remove the packages, that prevented perl from updating. Perl
was updated correctly and, surprisingly, updated packages of everything
removed, except elinks, were also installed. E.g., I now have
libsnmp30-5.7.3-8.7, updated from 5.7.3-8.6, which appears in your error list,
and perl-base 5.24.1-1.1, again upgraded from 5.24.0-3.6, which the older
version of libsnmp30 required.

As you say, the problem is more serious, but it seems that in most (but not
all) cases zypper will do the right thing, if told to remove the packages that
block the update. This is why I reported the problem only against elinks.
