owlglass Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Disk Utility's Verify Disk Permissions function keeps reporting "ACL found but not expected". What does this mean? It still happens when verifying immediately after repairing disk permissions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rathalos Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Its ok, all of us get this msg... ACL refers to something within the receipts that was written in ur /Library/Reciepts folder i guess... cos they were retrieving permissions off that location based on each and every individual package installed on ur system from the installer...

owlglass Posted October 5, 2007 Author Share Posted October 5, 2007 Thanks for the info! But -- if anyone knows -- what does it do? And why doesn't Disk Utility get rid of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesloth Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I'm having this problem also. Running the repair doesn't fix anything. Running it right afterwards returns the same result. Trouble is it takes Disk Utility much longer to run the repair. Is there a way to fix this? After I try to repair the disk permissions the Finder starts to hog the CPU until I force relaunch it.
