At least for Fedora for the icon part we install the lyx.png file in 
%{_datadir}/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/lyx.png

as stated in the bug report above I suspect that it should be enough to install 
the svg file into

%{_datadir}/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/lyx.svg

FWIW in Fedora the datadir variable above is /usr/share

In the case of Fedora this is done manually as I am not aware of general rules, 
but as Jean-Marc demonstrated above my knowledge here is limited (with the 
limit tending to zero). :-D
