$ ldd ${PATH_TO_THE_EXECUTABLE}/lyx
Here (using RH8) it gives:
$ ldd ./lyx-qt
[snip...]
libqt-mt.so.3 => /usr/lib/qt-3.0.5/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 (0x40024000)
libXft.so.2 => /usr/lib/libXft.so.2 (0x40a07000)
libfontconfig.so.1 => /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1 (0x40a1a000)

This is a matter of the Linux distribution that you use. As I understand it,
RH8 and above and Debian unstable are using fontconfig. Dunno about any
others.
