I am on Arch, and installing (stable) Lyx from the official package works fine. I do keep a more or less updated version of (unstable) trunk for testing purposes, but I would not use it for production. The file format is not (nor is it supposed to be) stable, for instance, and that may create problems. For Ubuntu, using the PPA seem to be working fine as well for many users, but I am not a regular Ubuntu user.
