If the fonts would always be in a subdirectory with version suffix then you could not install a versioned LyX in parallel to the distro package, for example. Using versioned directories ensures that packages can be installed in parallel. Which fonts are selected at runtime is a different story (and IMHO not important, they do not change often). > How should latex select the correct data?

Same explanation as well;-) Georg
