Since I upgraded to Xcode 2.5 (OS X 10.4.10), a couple of hours ago,
I've been getting this when I repair permissions, both in my G5 desktop
as well as my MacBook Pro:

Repairing permissions for “Ada”
Determining correct file permissions.
Group differs on ./Private, should be 80, group is 0
Permissions differ on ./Private, should be drwxrwxr-x , they are drwxr-xr-x
Owner and group corrected on ./Private

Does someone know what's going on?
What's going on is clear:
You installed a package that has a directory named /Private with
owner/permission
root admin drwxrwxr-x
which conflicts with the standard system directory /private that has
root wheel drwxr-xr-x
Since you are on a case-insensitive file system, your Repair Permissions
program does not distinguish between /Private and /private.
You should try to find out which package installed this strange
/Private. Using /usr/sbin/pkgutil and /usr/libexec/repair_packages, or
ultimately lsbom, should permit to find the culprit.
I don't have such a package on my Leopard system.
