nodes moving without selecting, simply move on mouseover

Report bug like a PRO !

Summary:

nodes move when paths are selected, move simply upon mouseover, cannot be unselected, edges between nodes also move

Steps to reproduce:

  • open Inkscape
  • create path
  • select node tool
  • nodes are buggy
  • crash

What happened?

nodes move and teleport all over the place, impossible to work

What should have happened?

nodes and edges should not be "sticky" and not move unless selected
