Bug#1057335: libperl-languageserver-perl: language server exits on error with «Can't "continue" outside a when block»

[Dominique Dumont]

Package: libperl-languageserver-perl
Version: 2.6.1-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

With the latest package, the language server always exits on error with:

Can't "continue" outside a when block at /usr/share/perl5/Perl/LanguageServer/Parser.pm line 181.

I'm using perl language server via emacs and lsp-mode. This bug happens whenever a Perl file is loaded.

Looks like a "continue" statement was not cleaned up with perl5.38 patch that was added to last release.

I've tried to fix the issue, but I'm a bit lost in the huge if/then/else statement. I'll let you fix this.

All the best
