[Frusadev]

I've found the source of the error.
@DanyloVolchenko maybe check for the presence of this in your config.

  {
    "nvim-telescope/teleScope.nvim",
    tag = "0.1.8",
    config = function()
      return require("configs.telescope")
    end,
  },

It seems to be installing 0.1.8 version of telescope. Removing that and running Lazy sync solved the issue.

[Frusadev]

I reopened because the 0.1.8 version does seem to be broken. I started getting the errors after a system update. But the Master branch works perfectly.

[DanyloVolchenko]

@Frusadev Thank you for answer.

can't report the same, the error changed, but it's still present.

telescope version:

		package = pkgs.fetchFromGitHub {
						owner = "nvim-telescope";
						repo = "telescope.nvim";
						rev = "a4ed82509cecc56df1c7138920a1aeaf246c0ac5"; # last commit from master branch
						hash = "sha256-e1ulhc4IIvUgpjKQrSqPY4WpXuez6wlxL6Min9U0o5Q=";
					};

all the remaining info left as is
