"dd" command clears the current line instead of removing it

[Jarosław Foksa]

"dd" command clears the current line instead of removing it if following conditions are met:
- cursor is placed at the beginning of the line
- the line begins with whitespace (either space or tab)

This bug seems to be related to currently intalled version of Python. I can reproduce it on system with Python 2.7.1 installed. I'm unable to reproduce it on system with exactly the same version of Gedit (2.30.3) and ViGedit but with older version of Python installed (2.6).

I managed to solve this issue by slightly modyfing delete_WholeLines() function from text.py:

Before
--------------------------------------------------------
def delete_WholeLines(act):
    number = act.vibase.numLines
    act.lines.select_Lines(act, number)
    cut_Selection(act)
    cursor = act.pos.getIter(act)
    line = cursor.get_line()
    if line > 0:
        delete_PrevChar(act, withBackSpace=True)
        act.pos.move_Forward(act)
    else:
        delete_Char(act, withBackSpace=True

After
--------------------------------------------------------
def delete_WholeLines(act):
    number = act.vibase.numLines
    act.lines.select_Lines(act, number)
    cut_Selection(act)
    cursor = act.pos.getIter(act)
    line = cursor.get_line()
    if line > 0:
        act.lines.select_ToLineEnd(act)
        cut_Selection(act)
        delete_PrevChar(act, withBackSpace=True)
        act.pos.move_Forward(act)
    else:
        delete_Char(act, withBackSpace=True
