Flutter Null Safety Migration says `Package doesn't exist`

Issue

Flutter Null Safety Migration

I am trying to migrate my project to Flutter Null Safety Version and I am following this official migration guide.

When I run the second command it says
Package doesn't exist (the Flutter SDK is not available).

Command I ran

me@My-MacBook-Air my_project % dart --version
Dart SDK version: 2.12.0 (stable) (Thu Feb 25 19:50:53 2021 +0100) on "macos_x64"
me@My-MacBook-Air my_project % dart pub outdated --mode=null-safety
Package doesn't exist (the Flutter SDK is not available).

Flutter Doctor Output

me@My-MacBook-Air my_project % `flutter doctor -v`

Solution

Try flutter pub outdated --mode=null-safety, should display the the migration state of your package’s dependencies.
