This fixes the problem for me :

  src_install() {
          dodir /usr/bin
+         make
          cp logserial ${D}/usr/bin
  }

No activity for almost one year, what's the status here?

never neede the program again ;-)

but I've just tried to install it, and it seems to be ok

I would suggest to close the bug, although noone has reacted since opening it.

Fix commited, sorry for the unacceptably long delay.
