The installer for the current binary of LyX/Mac-1.3.5 (lyx-1.3.5-4macos_aqua.tgz) changes the owner and group on the Applications folder from the correct root/admin to username/staff. Running repair permissions in the disk utility will fix it.
This should be fixed in the installer, or the LyX/Mac application could be a drag & drop.
Are you sure? The installer currently has this in its Info.plist file:
<key>IFPkgFlagOverwritePermissions</key> <false/>
That should prevent this, and when I reinstall on my system I don't get any changes of owner/permissions on /Applications. (Was that, perhaps, a defect of an earlier installer that is now fixed?)
