Basically the title

   └── lan-mouse

File exists (in cloned repo, I guess), but it's not linked anywhere

I'm not too familiar with NixOS but isn't homemanager responsible for config files rather than the package itself?
I think the desktop file should be installed via the package, however I'm not sure whether or not that is the case atm.
@PedroHLC @ICE-GB can you comment on this?

It needs a xdg.desktopEntries.lan-mouse around here: ab1b45ff45/nix/hm-module.nix (L78)

Or the package should install an $out/share/applications. And then be added to some place that affects XDG_DATA_DIRS, like home.packages or systemPackages

Sorry, I have been using services. It should be fine now.
