Hi Thomas, I'm the author of this script by the way. I didn't say that before.
The bulk of the work that it does is in the install file which is not easy to view from the AUR website, so I'm not sure if you saw it. [Here][1] is a link to it in the git repo viewer. It's still a very simple script; it's mostly just doing what is described on the wiki for Debian: 1. create users 2. make a skeleton /nix folder 3. display a message telling the user how to enable the daemon. It wasn't doing (2) properly until a few minutes ago; previously it was failing if `/nix/store` didn't exist. As you will see, the installer is basically just a shell script that gets run as root when the package is installed, so if there is a more official version of this process, it would probably be quite easy to include it there.
