I can confirm that I get this exact behavior. If the symlink exists and points to a non-existent file then it fails silently.

I would appreciate if you can try to reproduce the issue as I was unable
to do so here (it warns me that a link exists in /usr/local/bin and asks for admin password if I select to replace it).
It silently fails to install if the symlink at the destination is dead. Steps to reproduce:
Deinstall shell support if it is installed
run
cd /usr/local/bin ln -s /I/Do/NO/EXIST mateTry and install shell support. It will silently fail.
This will probably be the scenario for most TM1 users who simply replace TM1 with TM2, as now the old mate symlink points to a non-existing file.
