You are probably running an outdated version of home-manager. The tofi module was added 10 days ago: nix-community/home-manager@8ff7bb3.

Edit: Well, it only hit hm's master atm...

this is what's most likely. these modules are based on the master branch of hm, and we don't support the release branches just yet

sorry this isn't documented :(

Does HM master track nixpkgs-unstable? For those of us tracking the latest nixpkgs release (23.11 right now), what does this mean? Will this shake out when 24.05 drops?

For what it's worth, my hacky workaround is to pin catppuccin-nix for the time being:

{
  inputs = {

    ...

    # Temporarily pin catppuccin, since they don't support tracking releases
    # currently, and newer commits break home-manager 23.11
    #catppuccin.url = "github:catppuccin/nix";
    catppuccin.url = "github:catppuccin/nix/a48e70a31616cb63e4794fd3465bff1835cc4246";
  
    ...

}

I'll probably try unpinning once I upgrade to 24.05.

Also, that catppuccin-nix commit was chosen somewhat randomly, but it does allow me to update / nixos-rebuild my system.

For anyone who was getting this error while on unstable running nix flake update, which bumps home-manager to use the latest commit (which contains the new tofi module), fixed this for me.

[getchoo]

this should be fixed as of aef5672. i would recommend all of those affected to run nix flake update

keeping this pinned for a bit in case anyone else comes across this
