Could you please post the code you are using to import Home Manager into your NixOS configuration? I have a feeling that <home-manager/nix-darwin> is being imported alongside <home-manager/nixos>, but I don't understand how their home-manager.users option definition could conflict (as they both seem to inherit it from Home Manager's nixos/common.nix).

[ThatOneOcto]

I am importing both

[ThatOneOcto]

This is my code that I am using to import

  imports =
    [ # Include the results of the hardware scan.
      ./hardware-configuration.nix
      <home-manager/nixos>
      <home-manager/nix-darwin>
    ];

After removing nix-darwin I am getting this error home-manager.users.octo.home.gtk I thought home-manager could manage GTK themes, if not is there another way

[ThatOneOcto]

   home-manager.users.octo = {pkgs, ...}: {
       home.pointerCursor = { package = pkgs.breeze-icons; gtk.enable = true; name = "breeze_cursors"; size = 24; };
       home.gtk = {
           enable = true;
           iconTheme = { name = "ePapirus-dark"; package = "pkgs.papirus-icon-theme"; };
           theme = { name = "Equilux"; package = "pkgs.equilux-theme"; };
         };
     };

[rcerc]

The options for configuring GTK are under the gtk attribute (as opposed to home.gtk). When specifying the GTK themes, you should not quote the packages (i.e., use package = pkgs.papirus-icon-theme; and package = pkgs.equilux-theme; instead of package = "pkgs.papirus-icon-theme"; and package = "pkgs.equilux-theme";).
