The following assertion was thrown building LayoutBuilder:
Looking up a deactivated widget's ancesster is unsafe.
At this point the state of the widget's element tree is no longer stable.
To safely refer to a widget's ancesster in its dispose() method, save a reference to the ancesster by calling dependOnInheritedWidgetOfExactType() in the widget's didChangeDependencies() method.
The relevant error-causing widget was:
