Error preventing config distro updates on a Drutopia site: Argument 4 passed to WidgetBase null, called in Field/WidgetPluginManager
The site was a pretty old, early one but i had successfully updated it a couple weeks ago. I didn’t save the database (the update was done locally), though, and trying to either update starting from the live database or trying to import my previously-working configuration and then update both ran into this error on the config distribution ‘import updated configuration’ step:

Definitely not finding the same error when i look for it :-(
When i finally “go back to the error page” … http://family-home.local/batch?id=7&op=finished

Well heck.
Every time.
Increased the memory limit to 512 megabytes just for fun, same thing.
Oh good lord:

That’s two gigabytes.
This error happened both with trying to config distro update from the live database and after trying to force in configuration (that was newer than the live database)
