The text is produced by the glpk library itself, not by Octave. There is nothing that Octave can do to stop a library from printing something directly to stdout.

If you are using Debian or Ubuntu or other derivative, this is fixed in the glpk package version 4.65-2 or later by patching the glpk library.

While running the full test suite a lot with the current Octave 5.0.90, I noticed that the test of glpk.m produces some text output. This results in a distorted result list, when running the full test suite:


  optimization/fminsearch.m ...................................... PASS   11/11
  optimization/fminunc.m ......................................... PASS    6/6
  optimization/fsolve.m .......................................... PASS    8/8
  optimization/fzero.m ........................................... PASS    4/4
  optimization/glpk.m ............................................Long-step dual simplex will be used
 PASS    3/3
  optimization/humps.m ........................................... PASS   11/11
  optimization/lsqnonneg.m ....................................... PASS   10/10
  optimization/optimget.m ........................................ PASS   12/12
  optimization/optimset.m ........................................ PASS    9/9
  optimization/pqpnonneg.m ....................................... PASS   11/11
  optimization/qp.m .............................................. PASS    1/1


I know it's not a big deal, but do we want to fix it anyways?
