You are not just lucky. It is no problem if this file does not exist.

Now you mix something up. What you mean was the global lyxrc.defaults that
was produced by configure.py. The global lyxrc.dist is something that was

lyxrc.dist can be used by the packager to provide some system specific
defaults. It is no error at all if it does not exist.
