This sort of thing really should be something like:

              dbg_log ((moved
                        ? _("monitored file '%s' was moved, removing watch")
                        : _("monitored file '%s' was deleted, removing watch")),
                       finfo->fname);

for the benefit of people trying to write translations. One can't always disassemble and reassemble English sentences so easily in other languages.
