rino-- there's no telling what's going on under the hood with these things.
If DW fixed some permissions and not others, and if OSX Repair managed a few others besides-- dunno-- difficult to say.
I'd be careful about using both permissions repair at the same time until Apple or Alsoft could shed some light on how each impacts on the system.
Generally speaking, I use Apple's own utilities first until such time the reports it gives indicate that it could not repair something. Then, I resort to DW and consign its results as final.
Where a file cannot be repaired, it's probably best to just replace the file. How each utility repairs permissions and directories is a bit of a mystery. One wonders with Apple's own utility why DW would be needed at all, exccept that DW *seems* to do a better job overall. I wouldn't take this as law, but it sounds to me that you are in good shape, Rino. I'd leave things alone until either utility tells you that there is a specific problem.
