My first inclination same as nelo, is Inkscape...but...am I the only one who finds Gimp scrambles Inkscape paths especially those from text.
I have found a solution about that scrambling problem, before exporting/saving as, I click on the "Make Selected Segments Curves", this add the missing handle/s (some time 1 or both) to the nodes, because GIMP seems to not like when it misses a handle on a node.
In all case, each time I'm switching to Inkscape when there are quite some nodes to select, I feel that I use the heavy artillery just for few nodes '
10-15 nodes to select, I stay with GIMP, though.

Thank you Rich but sadly I cannot install sk1 (I even tried version down until Ubuntu 16.04)
All the same error
I have both python2 and 3, anyway it should work as "active" python >= 2.7, no? (Ubuntu-MATE 20.04.5)
In terminal:
Code:
patrice@Ubuntu-Family:~$ python -V
Python 2.7.18
