I was going to use alpm_list_remove_dups instead of testing for a
strings presence before adding it but I find that function quite
impractical...
I wonder if any other frontend is using it and whether we could change
it to actually removing the duplicates from a list. i.e. return the
same list with duplicates removed and their data freed. Or am I
missing some usage case where the current functionality is useful?

Just a sidenote: remove_dup could be done in O(n) time, when the list
is sorted. :-)
