No. The only reason that these patches would *fail* to update is if the
source code was in some way changed or the update tracking was broken. The
only way to really "accidentally" break the update tracking is to untar a
fresh copy of AmberTools or Amber on top of an existing amber14 directory
that has already been updated. This would trick update_amber into thinking
that the updates have already been applied when in fact you replaced the
source code with an unpatched copy. There are other things that can go
wrong with this approach, too, so you should never do that.

What this tells me is that your Amber 14 source code is corrupt. I'm not
sure how it happened, but the source code has clearly been changed somehow
compared to the "official" release with bug fixes. Since there's no way
for us to know *how* it's been changed (especially if you do not know
yourself), or what those changes are, the only thing that we can suggest is
to delete your Amber installation and start over. Make sure you start from
Amber14.tar.bz2 (the original tarball release) -- do not just copy it from
some other place since that is an easy way for this kind of thing to happen
in the first place.
