8.0.1 Patch for Linux has no installer?

So I've downloaded the 8.0.1 update for Linux and Windows. The windows version is an installer but the linux version is just a zip file with no instructions?? I've been running CF on both Windows and Linux for six years and the Linux updaters were always executable .bin files. I've got no idea what to do with this zip file. It has no readme, and no identifiable directory structure.

Anyone know how I can apply this to my production linux server? Thanks for any help.

Adobe, how about a readme or some kind of instruction for these patches if they aren't installers?

    Brad,
    Sorry about that. The installer was accidentally renamed and should be a bin file. We will update the site asap.

    Thanks to Jochem to answering this in another post. The .zip file is
    actually an executable linux installer. Go figure. Thanks for
    confusing the heck out of me and wasting my afternoon Adobe. Why didn't
    you just name it .bin like you have in all the years past?! Sheesh!
