Hi all
This may sound like a dumb question, but I am new to this game, is
it normal to run repair permissions after a software update, and
why?

Hello Peter,
In general, run Repair Permissions after installing or upgrading software.
To be accurate, it doesn't actually repair permissions. Rather, it
simply resets permissions.
Permissions stay the way they are set until someone or something
comes along and sets them another way.

IMHO (and that of others) if repair permissions were required after
the update, Apple's installer would do it anyway...
