Yes. I thought this was a well known feature of wc-ng single-db.

I'm not sure how much explanation of wc-ng, single-db you expect in
the log message. Generally I try to avoid having the log message
simply repeat the code change. The code change already shows that
it's removing a directory from the expected_disk, I suppose the log
message could mention that it's a delete operation?
Or do you expect the test to continue to record these directories as
present but have some other part of the testsuite code ignore them?
