If you name the file in GIT 'virt-edit' instead of 'virt-edit.pl' you can just use the regular automake rules since you won't need to be re-naming it upon install..
bin_SCRIPTS = virt-edit
and thus not have to write install + uninstall hooks.
The was some reason why we called the tools virt-foo.pl, but I can't honestly recall it now. Perhaps something to do with having the editor recognize that it's a Perl file, but I should think any editor worth its salt should be able to do that ...
