health check fails with exception

[ragu-manjegowda]

Running checkhealth gives me the following error.

Tried make clean and then make, it did not help.

telescope: require("telescope.health").check()
  ========================================================================

your fzf version isn't necessary, because this plugin isn't using the fzf binary, its a port of the algorithm to c.

Can you share your nvim config? Like i am confused why sorter:init() isnt a valid function for you. Like sorter is some sort of interface and init is a function that the interface provides

Thanks for getting back, I took a closer look at the config. Removing this override_generic_sorter = false, fixes the error.

Here is the minimal config, full config here

telescope.setup({
        defaults = {
            file_sorter = require("telescope.sorters").get_fzy_sorter,
        },
        extensions = {
            fzf = {
                override_generic_sorter = false,
                override_file_sorter = true,
            },
        },
    })
