You have to run the installer while logged in from an "admin" account.
Go into System Preferences:Users and Groups and make sure about
this.

That's the first thing to check; if this isn't the problem, the issue is
going to be: the Datacolor folder in your Applications folder won't have
write permissions, probably because of something having to do with
permissions when you upgraded; and there are (somewhat annoying)
ways you can fix that.
