Thanks for the answer. I tried removing the .texlive directory, but nothing changed. However, on my laptop it worked correctly even with texlive-2021, which is strange because its configuration is very similar to that of my desktop PC (where it doesn't work). The list of texlive-related packages is the same in both machines, so I can't really understand what's going on. However, in the meanwhile, I found a workaround for the issue with LyX: enabling the "Use non-TeX fonts (via XeTeX/LuaTeX)" document setting makes it work even on the desktop PC (when I wrote the original mail, I had masked texlive-2021 on my laptop to have a system where LyX worked correctly; after discovering this workaround, I felt safe in upgrading it; I didn't think about testing this problem there). I had reported this issue on the LyX bug tracker and they answered me this issue would be fixed in a future release. Stefano
