I've never been convinced that either is necessary. The installer script embedded in the updater can set permissions. Why would the Disk Utility program know better how to set permissions than the people who write installer scripts? I prefer not to let the Disk Utility mess around with my hard drive, unless I suspect there's a problem it can fix. | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be August 24.
