Sure, done. Thanks!

I think it is only for debugging purposes, as it should only print to
stdout, so I did not mark it as translatable or made it use a
%(variable)s. I'm always in favour of having everything translatable,
but for debugging messages, I think it is easier for developers to have
it in English, and for translators to concentrate only on really visible
strings.

I haven't changed that one, since it's not related to the translation
fixes, and it's probably something that should be discussed with the
developers, but basically, yes, I prefer your suggestion as well. I
think this one could be sorted out just by having a quick chat at
irc://irc.arstechnica.com/gwibber.

The same comment as the other one. I haven't changed it for now, as I
think it is only a debug message.
