deleting a way without nodes is not possible

[wendorff@…]

The redaction bot produced ways with 0 (zero) nodes.
I can select them by search or via relations editor, but I cannot delete them or add nodes to it.

Trying Delete (by keyboard) after selecting returns a message box with unexpected programming error (or something like that). I can close that by pressing OK, but the way isn't deleted.

I choose the high priority because I think this is especially important currently after the redaction bot worked - of course it's not critical for JOSM as it is in general.

Do you have any example (way id) please ?

unexpected programming error (or something like that)

Why do you think that josm ask to report exactly that error? It helps us to find the reason of such problems.

Okay, sorry for that.
I was relatively sure to know why that happened, and first did not file a ticket here - but now I cannot reproduce it anymore :/

When I opened the ticket I didn't had the error message in mind, so sorry for that fuzzy statement.

I was quite sure fixing would only need an (probably artificial test osm-file containing a relation with one member being a 0-node-way, but it turns out that I cannot reproduce the bug myself by that.

So: Sorry for that - please close the bug report.
If I get the same error again, I will re-add a note here nevertheless; hope that's okay.

regards
and thanks for the great piece of software ;)
