He is running El Capitan. Apple removed the option to repair permissions from Disk Utility in El Capitan. It's a pointless thing to do usually. Repair permissions only knows what the permissions are supposed to be on software installed using Apple's Installer. Software installed using MacPorts is not installed using Apple's Installer so the repair permissions function will not affect anything installed using MacPorts. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
