Hi. I've discovered that some GUI applications regenerate icon-cache during install. It works for other distros but leads to a confusion in Nix. For example, after installing gparted, all other user-installed applications lost their icons in Xfce main menu. That is because nixos places icon-cache of gparted under ~/.nix-profile/share/icons/hicolor. Xfce sees the cache (which contains only gparted icons) and renders all non-gparted menu items using default "no-icon" stub.
The simplest solution to my problem would be to fix the gparted installer (say, remove the cache using postInstall hook) but it doesn't look clever enough. Is it possible to do something better than that, for example, filter out this cache globally or prevent it from being linked?
