I'm not aware of a LyX update that meant to change this so perhaps it was an update to the LaTeX file? LyX does not (and has never AFAIK) changed the log in any way after you click on "View Complete Log". However, this might be worth a feature request. If you can think of a good way LyX can show the path to the log in an unintrusive way (e.g. not changing the LaTeX log), then it might be considered.

Another possibility is: on Linux when I preview with Evince, I can just right-click on the PDF that is opened in Evince and there is an option "Open Containing Folder". I think that is the folder you want. Scott
