slot inside #if inside #each : TypeError cannot read property 'd' of null

REPL link

<script>
  let show = true;
  setTimeout(() => (show = false));
</script>

<div>
  {#each [""] as v (v)}
     {#if show}<slot></slot>{/if}
  {/each}
</div>

Running this causes an error when an update is triggered by the reactive assignment in setTimeout:
Chrome: Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read property 'd' of null
Safari: Unhandled Promise Rejection: TypeError: null is not an object (evaluating 'if_block.d')

If the each block is not keyed (I remove (v)), there's no error.

Such an intricate bug. Great find!

The change handler of the each block has this code in it:

p(changed, ctx) {
  // ...
  group_outros();
  on_outro(() => {
    if_block.d(1);
    if_block = null;
  });

  if_block.o(1);
  check_outros();
}

And the change handler of the entire component has this code in it:

p(changed, ctx) {
  // ...
  each_blocks = update_keyed_each(/* ... */);
  check_outros();
}

When show is changed the check_outros in the each block change handler is called and it sets if_block to null, so when the component check_outros is called directly after, if_block is null and the error is thrown.

I've had the same errors in keyed each which contain if with svelte:self inside.
Maybe, we can just add null-checks to on_outro callbacks?

I did try to add some null-checks to on_outro in IfBlock. Hope it's right way to fix this issue.

I'm getting this error in a keyed each with an if block which contains a component:
https://svelte.dev/repl/f737684ba6534637901724ce9daca33f?version=3.4.4

Steps to reproduce:

1. Click the submit button
2. Then click the reset button

JS error in Console: TypeError: if_block is null.
(Removing the key avoids the issue.)

The only workaround I've found to get around this issue is to move the

{#if shown}...{/if}

into the component.

Just ran into the same variation as @fvsch. Here's a slightly smaller reproduction of the issue:

https://svelte.dev/repl/35fdcf7ddad1403abf3ec6eeee108e57?version=3.4.4

Note that the problem goes away if you remove the key (item) or don't use a component (say, replace <Item></Item> with <li></li>).

All three of the reproductions in this issue look to be fixed in 3.6.7, presumably by #3172. Closing.
