Could you be more specific regarding how the fonts are destroyed? How 
did you install them? How are you using them?

Here the following works perfectly, for example:

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\usepackage[expert,vargreek,lucidasmallscale]{lucidabr}

You need to install, on top of gwTeX, the PFB font files (assuming 
installation in /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/, same applies to 
~/Library/texmf/; moreover, the following corresponds to the expert 
font set):

Did you run, after installing these files:

	sudo texhash

(necessary for installation in texmf.local/, unnecessary for 
installation in ~/Library/texmf/), and then:

	sudo updmap --enable Map lucidabr.map
	sudo updmap --enable Map lumath.map
	sudo updmap --enable Map lucidabr-o.map
	sudo updmap --enable Map lumath-o.map

To see what this does, have a look at the files:

	/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/fonts/map/dvips/lucida/lucidabr.map
	/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/fonts/map/dvips/lucida/lumath.map
	/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/fonts/map/dvips/tetex/lucidabr-o.map
	/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/fonts/map/dvips/tetex/lumath-o.map

Hope this helps,
