MacOS fresh install - profile created in /Users/root vs /Users/$USER

[patryk-kozak]

version: nix-2.10.3
darwin: 21.5.0
macOS: 10.16
multi-user: yes

Scenario:

1. Run MacOS
2. Install nix via sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install)
3. Checkout Disruptor
4. Run disruptor nix-shell via ./nix-shell.sh
5. Error appears

bash: /Users/$USER/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/nix.sh: No such file or directory
bash: /Users/$USER/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/nix.sh: No such file or directory

User provided the information that profile is created under /Users/root, not /Users/$USER which triggers the above error.

In my early investigation it looks like the first invocation of shell may be run with sudo permissions which is configuring profile under /Users/root and not /Users/$USER.
