I have noticed that description of the 'perl' package is:

"Perl 5 is a highly capable, feature-rich programming language with over
24 years of development."

Mentioning 24 years seems strange to me.  Well, of course, "over 24
years" will always be correct (as well as "over 1 year"), but still :-)

Yeah, and now it's “over 30 years of developemnt”:  http://www.perl.org/

I went ahead and change it to the description statement from
‘perlintro’.  

Thanks!
