Just for reference, Anne is not the one that originated the repair
after each install. That comes straight out of apple documents, and
while I agree it's extreme overkill, as mentioned, it won't hurt
anything, and actually perhaps may prevent problems. But with that
said, I think I've run repair permissions maybe twice on my 2005 ppc
mac mini, and it's still working just fine, so there's definitely two
sides to the issue, and honestly, neither one is wrong, it's just all
what you're used to.
If the machine is slowing down, a repair permissions may help. It may
not help too, but at east it's something to try.
