A factory reset should wipe it out. But, logging out of the Kobo account could hit the problem Nick describes. I would have expected it to be OK, but it depends on how the patch worked. If it sets the version number higher than any available, it should be OK. But, if it changes the URL or something so that the server can't be contacted, it might cause this.
