I have been trying to get the most recent version of Commerce Kickstart to install as a profile in Aegir, but I have had no luck. I found the following note on the Aegir project site, and this note in the Commerce Kickstart issue queue. Has anyone gotten this to work?

1Kickstart v2 is not Aegir friendly right now. This means it always installs the demo store, which is not suitable for new (non-demo) sites. Fixing this is planned at one point (by exposing Kickstart specific settings in the "Create site" form, for example), but it might take a while.– Bojan ZivanovicNov 26, 2012 at 0:38

If you download the .tar.gz from http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/commerce_kickstart-7.x-2.0-rc4-core.tar.gz into your platforms directory on aegir, untar it, and then create a platform with the same name you can build sites using the commerce kickstart profile with aegir. Here are the commands I used:
cd /var/aegir/platforms
curl -O http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/commerce_kickstart-7.x-2.0-rc4-core.tar.gz
tar xzf commerce_kickstart_7.x-2.0-rc4-core.tar.gz
mv commerce_kickstart_7.x-2.0-rc4 commerce-kickstart
chown -Rf aegir\: commerce-kickstart
Then go into Aegir and create a platform. Set the platform directory to this commerce-kickstart directory and don't include a build file. It'll verify the platform and then you'll be able to create sites on there using the Commerce Kickstart installation profile.

But if I understand correctly If you download the .tar.gz from ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/… into your platforms directory on aegir, untar it, and then create a platform with the same name you can build sites using the commerce kickstart profile with aegir. Here are the commands I used: This will only enable you to create sites that are "Demo Store" sites. This will end up totally screwing you if you try to make a "Live" site.– user18703Jul 17, 2013 at 13:30
