Bug Description
- draw a straight line path (just two clicks and Enter
in the bezier tool)
- ctrl+d
- select both paths and do Path > Union: they disappear.
Of note:
- this happens even if the paths coincide by only one
endnode, i.e. if after ctrl+d you move one of the nodes
of one of the paths with node tool, they will still
disappear
- this does not happen with curvilinear paths or with
paths consisting of two or more straight line segments
- they behave as expected (two paths turn into one)
- this happened in 0.39 too
- this is a minor but real problem because I have a
program which exports complex curves as sequences of
small straight <line>s; I want to turn them into a
single path and then simplify, but I cannot because
these lines coincide in their endnodes and thus
disappear on union.
