How is Disk Utility upgraded? Is there a method to upgrade Disk Utility? As all of these replies in this thread are website copy/paste replies, has anyone read the method to update/upgrade Disk Utility to recognize changes made a very long time ago with countless reboots, etcetera?

The problem, or inaccurate coding of Disk Utility by Apple, Inc. is especially problematic when installing Apple Remote Desktop. I have never had so many issues with my Macs, not since installing Apple Remote Desktop - I am seeing this error, post-install of ARD, on all OS systems from Leopard, SL, Lion, ML, Mavericks.
Also, I have not made user permissions changes on any of my Macintosh Apple computers, so that reason provided may not be the "issue"...
Having errors and permissions issues showing on a computing system and the manufacturer stating "Oh, we know about that, just ignore it" is more like a beta OS/Config. These Operating Systems are completed, not beta. All of this should be polished and corrected by now.
I do have one computer that does not have the "red harring" (whatever that means)- I'm tempted to copy/paste as suggested by someone in previous page posting, as it corrected his/hers Disk Util's output. My thing is, if I run "Repair" and it states that the "Mile-Long" list is repaired, then I click "Repair" again and it does the exact same thing, then I close everything, reboot, pull up DUtil again, click "Repair" and it does the same thing, showing the same areas, literally hundreds of lines being repaired, something is wrong with either Disk Utility or something is wrong with the newly added "Apple Remote Desktop" which is the only change since having no issues to having hundreds of repairs as well as a glitchy system.
