/usr/bin/security {add,find,delete}-generic-password accepts both -a account and -s service parameters as password lookup keys. Always pass -a "${VOLUME}" and -s "Nix Store". With this change, installation succeeds even with --encrypt set to true and --volume-label set to any value deviating from Nix Store.##### Description
