Yep, seems so:
commit bd352b89ba9c6872eba5afa83fa21fe1c0ce6039
Author: Adam Jackson <ajax(a)fedoraproject.org>
Date: Wed Jul 22 19:11:59 2009 +0000
- Split perl scripts to a subpackage.

Apparently the latter. psjoin was added by this commit, which causes perl to
creep-in:
commit d3e42a7fc02b8777678f0f9bd0fa8697e6479908
Author: Jiri Popelka <jpopelka(a)redhat.com>
Date: Tue Oct 22 17:17:04 2013 +0200
new upstream (version 1.21)
IMO, this split contradicts end-user usability and therefore should be dropped.

If I had to guess, I'd say someone was trying to make a package split to
minimize dependency footprint in the default install. They clearly didn't
achieve it though or they did at one point and perl crept back in.
