If you haven't solved this yet here's what you want to do:
Rerun the installer, it will fix any of these kind of problems. Not the patcher, the installer. After you run it for the version you have, then reapply the patch.

The installer will fix permissions, and the bashrc file along with any groups.

When in doubt, rerun the installer.
