I'm not sure it is correct syntax. From IPC::Run docs:

       '>pty>' means '&>pty>', not '1>pty>'
           The pseudo terminal redirects both stdout and stderr
           unless you specify a file descriptor.  If you want to
           grab stderr separately, do this:

              start \@cmd, '<pty<', \$in, '>pty>', \$out, '2>', \$err 
+;

So probably your code should look like (untested):

use IPC::Run qw(run);

my ($out, $err);

run (
    [ '/usr/sbin/pkgrm', 'VRTSvxvm' ],
    '>pty>', sub { $out .= $_[0]; print STDOUT $_[0] },
    '2>', sub { $err .= $_[0]; print STDERR $_[0] },
    );
