Path>Combine of Symbols Bug

Summary:

When doing a path>combine on a group of symbols the resulting path is buried in the group plus there are empty "user" objects.

Because the resulting path is buried in the original group, it appears that the path>combine command failed.

What is concerning me though is the multitude of empty "user" objects that will be saved if you do a save right after the path>combine. The only way to eliminate those empty "user" objects is to do a deep ungroup.

Steps to reproduce:

  • open Inkscape

See attached file and follow the instructions.
