Ah, so many options! I tried the daemon with --debug. Here is the result:

In unknown file:

?: 0 [mkdir "/nix/store/mv7v3y702k1yfml8067gn15r3n6pzjxm-user-environment///nix/store/agjc4rdsvi4wvbz6dymgid5pb85nqcf7-netpbm-10.61.01/VERSION" ...]

ERROR: In procedure mkdir:

ERROR: In procedure mkdir: No such file or directory

So indeed, the problem is the extraneous files, and the package can be installed after deleting them.
