Symptom

On nvim startup, lualine reports an error pointing to :LuaLineNotices. The notice reads:

### options.theme
Theme catppuccin not found, falling back to auto

Cause

The catppuccin plugin was bumped to v2.0.0, which renamed its bundled lualine theme files. There is no longer a plain catppuccin.lua; only per-flavour files (catppuccin-mocha.lua, catppuccin-frappe.lua, …) and a flavour-aware catppuccin-nvim.lua. The config in lyrathorpe/home/editor.nix still requested theme = "catppuccin", which no longer resolves, so lualine fell back to the auto theme.

Fix

Pin the lualine theme to catppuccin-mocha to match the configured colorscheme flavour (settings.flavour = "mocha").
