ACLr8 is a command-line tool written in Python that will analyze your entire hard drive searching for files that cause the "ACL found but not expected" errors in disk utility, and remove all ACL from them.
Although these errors are relatively harmless, they can be quite annoying and they cause permission repairs to take much longer than they should. ACLr8 is very safe, but of course you use it at your own risk.

This worked well on Mac OS X 10.8.4--it cleared out 48632 files with incorrect ACLs.

(10.5.8 on a 800MHz iBook.)
I get the following:
bobbys-ibook-g4:~ bobby$ /Applications/ACLr8 ; exit;
env: python: No such file or directory
logout
I know it's not much to go on, but does anyone have any clues, please?
