Tony, you should apply the 24 hour rule again before you call James's 
response an "attack".

Anyway, I think that James was trying to inform you about the wonder 
that is a patch.  Creating, uploading, dowloading and imaging is a hard 
thing.  Applying a patch is something that can be done with "curl" and 
then "patch -p1" or the similar.  If you want to be even fancier, you 
can build and distribute an rpm.  I don't know too much about 
deployments, but if running a command is harder than installing an 
image, I think you might want to investigate some better tooling.

Thanks,
Sam
