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.
Good point, though I guess /opt itself would be checked.
TBH, I suggested both out of habit as sometimes one will get a system
working and sometimes the other.
