...it's never a good idea to maintain software you installed yourself
as user "root". A better solution is to run
sudo chown -R howard:users /usr/local
Then you are the owner of /usr/local and can run tlmgr without sudo,
etc. This is not only much more secure but also much more convenient.
Regards,
Reinhard
