[Bug] Icon Theme on NixOS can't be found

[quantumfate]

The following common locations for icon themes don't exist on a standard NixOS installation.

➜  ~ hyprlauncher

In a Home-Manager setup, installed such as home.packages = with pkgs; [...], the icons are located in /etc/profiles/per-user/<user>/share/icons and if installed through environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [...]; it will be located in /run/current-system/sw/share/icons/.

that's not XDG-standard compatible. I assume $XDG_DATA_DIRS has them? can you show me your $XDG_DATA_DIRS?

[quantumfate]

yeah ofc!

/nix/store/p4i3qsi3vhljaypk4ms1vpckkwc707mm-desktops/share:/home/quantum/.nix-profile/share:/nix/profile/share:/home/quantum/.local/state/nix/profile/share:/etc/profiles/per-user/quantum/share:/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/share:/run/current-system/sw/share

And this folder does have the icons too, that I want to use.

➜ ~ ls /etc/profiles/per-user/quantum/share/icons
