Fix an issue where a dependency and a package providing it were connected more than once in --graph output. The code supposed to prevent that did not always work due to using dangling pointers.

This is how one can find a package to reproduce the bug:

for pkg in `pacman -Qq`; do pactree -g $pkg | sort | uniq -c | awk '$1 != 1' | grep '' && { echo $pkg; break; } done

Originally, I wanted to check if the value returned by strdup() is not null, but the existing code (line 217) does not do that, so I don't either.

Thank you, pushed. The command you shared didn't work for me, but I reproduced the issue with the nginx package. -- Best, Daniel <https://danielcapella.com>
