All-the-icons-dired mode gives me an error making it unusable

[Vidianos-Giannitsis]

Explanation of the bug After my weekly package update (which I assume updated either this package or all-the-icons and broke something), whenever all-the-icons-dired mode is activated I get an error that reads all-the-icons-dired--setup: Symbol’s value as variable is void: file

I was also able to reproduce it with emacs -Q, so my config isn't causing the problem.

Steps to reproduce If you have the latest version of both all-the-icons and this package (I didn't see which one got updated, causing the bug, but it has to be one of the two, as this occured after updating my packages) and the code (use-package all-the-icons-dired :hook (dired-mode . all-the-icons-dired-mode)) in your init.el, when you try opening Dired, you will see this message.

if you don't have the mode hooked to dired, simply activate it from the M-x menu and you see the same message.

I would also like to mention that I tried opening ibuffer and enabling its all-the-icons mode to see if it was a general all-the-icons bug and that worked fine, so I believe I can safely assume that this package is the problem.

Thanks in advance for your time, this is one of my favorite packages as it makes dired much prettier and I would hate to see this not fixed.

Probably not this package since it hasn't been updated in quite a while. I'm guessing something else changed in all-the-icons or something which caused the issue. I'm getting this too and I also updated my packages today haha.

Ok, thats useful insight, I didn't pay attention to which one updated. All-the-icons probably changed something in their most recent update which broke this package. Would be great if the author could help with the troubleshooting!

That issue has been fixed here.
