I put the .mf files in ~/texmf/fonts/source/public/
I put the phonetic.sty and phonetic-table.tex in ~/texmf/tex/
documents don't complain about the \usepackage{phonetic}
but I get an "undefined control sequence" error if I try to
render the riota
(more specifically, the error is:
\textit{\riota}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
Also, I get an error if I try to reconfigure lyx (this happens
independently of the presence of the phonetic package)
which might be relevant. The error message is:
The system reconfiguration has failed.
Default textclass is used but LyX may not be able to work properly.
Please reconfigure again if needed.
So ... I'm pretty messed up here ...
