That's correct. I did manage to screw the path when trying the system
dictionaries. I tested and I get Hunspell working with both
/usr/share/myspell/dicts

and
/usr/share/hunspell

on my Xubuntu box. The "myspell" dir contains soft links to the
"hunspell" dir. I also managed to use
/usr/local/build/lyx-hunspell/dicts

which contains the Hunspell dictionaries as hosted on the LyX SVN.

A note: after changing the Hunspell Path it is mandatory to restart
LyX for the new settings to take effect. We may want to have a message
informing the user about this (similar to the pop-up following
'reconfigure').

Thanks
Liviu
