You can replace the two last lines with

  (install-file "tunctl" bin)

> +    (description "Utility to set up and maintain TUN/TAP network interfaces")

This is a bit short. What about:

  tunctl is used to set up and maintain persistent TUN/TAP network
  interfaces, enabling user applications to simulate network traffic.
  Such interfaces is useful for VPN software, virtualization, emulation,
  simulation, and a number of other applications.

Thank you!
