There are no ACLs on my system for /usr/ or /usr/local, but then again I don’t run home-brew and it sure sounds like Homebrew mucked something up. Try this $ sudo ls -lsde@ /usr $ sudo ls -lse@ /usr Maybe HomeBrew added some ACL or something? If you don’t see anything obvious, ask on the homebrew list -- How do I set my laser printer to "STUN"? _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list MacOSX-talk@omnigroup.com http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
