 When trying to copy a Calculate instance I get the following traceback:

 Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/home/sascha.silbe/sugar-jhbuild/install/lib/python2.5/site-
 packages/jarabe/journal/volumestoolbar.py", line 141, in

     model.copy(metadata, self.mount_point)
   File "/home/sascha.silbe/sugar-jhbuild/install/lib/python2.5/site-
 packages/jarabe/journal/model.py", line 459, in copy
     return write(metadata, file_path)
   File "/home/sascha.silbe/sugar-jhbuild/install/lib/python2.5/site-
 packages/jarabe/journal/model.py", line 487, in write
     file_name = _get_file_name(metadata['title'], metadata['mime_type'])
   File "/home/sascha.silbe/sugar-jhbuild/install/lib/python2.5/site-
 packages/jarabe/journal/model.py", line 499, in _get_file_name
     extension = '.' + mime.get_primary_extension(mime_type)
 TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'NoneType' objects


 This is because sugar.mime.get_primary_extension() returns None if no
 extension for the given MIME type is known.
 The attached patch handles this case by substituting the empty string
 instead.
