Package: libsasl2-modules
Version: 2.1.26.dfsg1-14+b1
Severity: minor
Whenever I use svn, even something like "svn help", a meaningless
message appears in the systemd journal, e.g. journalctl gives:
[...]

That's annoying. According to dgrep, this message comes from
libsasl2-modules.
This problem already occurred back in 2011:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=631932
but probably for sysvinit machines. It was fixed in 2014 with:
* Add logcheck snippet to suppress "DIGEST-MD5 common mech free" messages
(Closes: #732771, #631932).
but this has no effect on my systemd machines. On sysvinit (and systemd)
machines, this message doesn't appear in "/var/log/syslog".
