The trouble is that the list of libraries is order-dependent so sorting them will definitely not work. Furthermore, list (REMOVE_DUPLICATES lst) keeps the first copy and drops subsequent ones which means that some libs will be neglected. If there are no dependency loops, you can reverse the list, REMOVE_DUPLICATES, and reverse it again (so that only the last occurrence of the library shows up). If there are loops, the library will need to be explicitly linked more than once, but CMake does not retain sufficient information to determine when this is safe, therefore it cannot be provided as a general function (so you can only "clean" the list when you know that the underlying dependency graph is acyclic).
