The overnight maintenance scripts and permissions errors

Question

I know that the weekly script modifies some permissions when it runs and then disk utility finds them and repairs them. I saw this one this time:
2008-09-20 20:53:44 -0400: Permissions differ on "private/var/log/secure.log", should be -rw------- , they are -rw-r----- .
2008-09-20 21:00:28 -0400: Permissions differ on "Library", should be drwxrwxr-t , they are drwxrwxr-x .
2008-09-20 21:00:43 -0400: Group differs on "private/etc/cups", should be 0, group is 26.
2008-09-20 21:00:43 -0400: Permissions differ on "private/var/spool/cups/cache/rss", should be drwxr-xr-x , they are drwxrwxr-x .
The Library one I am not use to seeing. I wonder if the 10.5.5 update changed something.
Note however, I ran the microsoft office 12.1.2 update before running this one two macbook pros (that are exactly the same). Only one macbook pro had this library thing, but, it hasn't run the weekly script yet either..
anyone "in the know" know about this library thing?

Answer 1

Well, I did the 10.5.5 update, ran Repair Permissions afterwards, and did not see /Library error. My /Library is drwxrwxr-t, as it is evidently meant to be. I believe the final "x" on directories is replaced with a "t" to mean that only the owner of files in that folder can delete them. I think it quite possible that it was changed to the more usual x by the the MS Updater. If so, the Repair Permissions process put it back to what it is supposed to be.
