I had the same error in Xcode 12.5.1 and it seems to be a bug that has been fixed in the next beta. However there seem to be several issues that could cause this error. So my solution might not work.

For me the problem was very specific and only happened in the following scenario:

A method that returns an optional RealmObject (might be different in your case) is called.
The returned RealmObject has been assigned a variable.
Trying to unwrap the variable with guard let or if let using the same name for the new safely unwrapped variable.

The easiest fix is using different variable names or Safely unwrapping the returned object directly without assigning it a variable.

Example that causes the error in my case:

class MyClass {

    func returnObject() -> Object? {
        return nil
    }

    func anyMethod() {

        let myObject = returnObject()

        guard let myObject = myObject else { return } // <-- works anywhere else but here.

    }
}

Same example that fixed the error in my case:

class MyClass {

    func returnObject() -> Object? {
        return nil
    }

    func anyMethod() {

        let myObject = returnObject()

        guard let myNewObject = myObject else { return } // <-- Changed name of new variable here

    }
}

I've seen people had this issue with other types, so it's not limited to the RealmObject type. But going through all guard let or if let with the same variable name is a good start.

I've also seen other people use fix it by cleaning the build folder or removing packages and reinstalling them. That didn't help for me though.

Thanks, Xcode 12.5.1 was falling over for me in scenario (3) when building an AWS Lambda for the Swift runtime. This answer was a gem! — ncke, Aug 23 '21 at 16:59

Flutter Specific

I had to set Optimization Level to No Optimization [-Onone] for Pods target.
