Do you remember if it gave an error (and if so, which)?
I’m pretty sure it was silent. I just noticed that the “light” continued to be red, so on the suspicion that it didn’t work, I checked in Terminal, saw that it was still pointing to the old location, removed it from there, and tried again.
I’m 96% sure that’s how it went. I can go through it again if you need 100%. :-)
FYI, the symlink was in `/usr/local/bin`. I own all of `/usr/local`. Now that I think about it, I didn’t happen to check ownership on the symlink, but if I own the directory, that shouldn’t matter anyway.
