Hello,

I am quite new to TeX and recently installed teTeX (Gerben Wierda's
distribution for macOS X) on my system using the installer from the
TeXShop-website. 

When I had a look across the directory hierarchies, I discovered something
strange: 

ll /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/ gives this result:

drwxr-xr-x  28 root  wheel     908 Jul 14 16:46 .
drwxr-xr-x   7 root  wheel     194 Jul 10 15:20 ..
-rw-r--r--   1 1340  100     10828 May 30 21:39 ChangeLog
-rw-r--r--   1 1340  100       827 Mar 31 22:56 aliases
drwxr-xr-x   5 1340  1340      264 Jun 27 19:45 bibtex
drwxr-xr-x   5 1340  1340      264 May 19 19:58 context
drwxr-xr-x  36 1340  1340     1180 Jul 16 12:13 doc
drwxr-xr-x   4 root  admin     264 Jun 27 19:45 dvipdfm
drwxr-xr-x  15 root  wheel     466 Jul  1 11:27 dvips
...

Here is something totally wrong with owner and group ID's. Could someone 
explain me, what happened here?

De facto, I tried to open some documentation files in TeXShop and this
failed, probably due to this problem.

greetings,
Irina
