Your information is incorrect. All Apple Camera Raw updates are done at the system level. This allows not only Aperture and iPhoto to read supported RAW formats but also Preview, Mail, and other applications. Since all versions of OS X install iPhoto as part of the system upgrade/install, one would have to go out of their way to delete it from their machine. I can\'t imagine why one would go to the trouble to delete it as it isn\'t particularly large and can be turned off as the default pix viewer quite easily. Regardless, the camera raw updates Apple pushes out fairly regularly will install on any currently supported version of OS X which I think still includes Snow Leopard.

No, your information is incorrect. My information is VERY correct and you couldn\'t possibly be further mistaken.
Apple states that it is a requirement to have this software to install.
Follow the links and read. Both state very clearly that you are incorrect. The second link explains in further detail towards the bottom.
\"Additional Information
* Aperture version 3.4.5 or later, or iPhoto version 9.4.3 or later, is required to install this update.\"
I\'m asking for a work around not to be told something I clearly have the ability of reading on my own or have further prior knowledge on specifics.
Also, the reason people wouldn\'t want iPhoto is simple. It sucks. It also hogs resources on clean running work machines. I don\'t drive around with extra weight in my car because I simply can.
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to explain to you a second time that I knew my facts where correct.
