Summary0017652: Deleting nodes using Delete key causes crash
DescriptionScribus crashes when deleting a node from a path using the Delete key on the keyboard (KB).
Steps To Reproduce1. New doc -> and get the Bezier pen
2. Draw a path (preferably 3 nodes)
3. Get into the path edit mode
4. Drag-select a node (using mouse) and press the Delete key on the KB.
5. Try: moving the path (maybe 2, 3 times), adding a new node to the same path etc.

This results in a crash with Signal-11.
Additional InformationMoreover, @ale (finally) confirmed this issue in the matrix group chat.

It is worth noticing/mentioning that it is only when you use the "Delete key" on your keyboard that Scribus crashes. Using the "Delete Nodes" tool from the "Nodes" panel that comes up in the edit mode does not cause the crash. Things work fine.

The issue is reproducible (for me) on:
1. Fedora 42 (Wayland)
2. LMDE 7 (X11)
3. Windows 10.
