react-native link adds duplicated lines to ios project.pbxproj file

See original GitHub issue

Say you link 2 or more native modules, it will result in a file with these lines or something similar, which is weird:

LIBRARY_SEARCH_PATHS = (
	"$(inherited)",
	"\"$(SRCROOT)/$(TARGET_NAME)\"",
	"\"$(SRCROOT)/$(TARGET_NAME)\"",
	"\"$(SRCROOT)/$(TARGET_NAME)\"",
	"\"$(SRCROOT)/$(TARGET_NAME)\"",
	"\"$(SRCROOT)/$(TARGET_NAME)\"",
);

Sounds like the same thing I’m seeing on android, duplicate additions to android/gradle.properties and .../MainApplication.java each time link is run. I don’t think it did that before.

I reported this issue in react-native-cli since I could not find that it had been reported in their repo
