[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 
[hw] err: err: 111
Creating an Aquamarine backend!

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/.

Output of $XDG_DATA_DIRS:

/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

there's an open PR for this from @ddlees: #28 (xdg-data-dirs aware icon search). it currently shows CONFLICTING and needs a rebase against main. if @ddlees doesn't have the cycles to refresh it, happy to pick it up
