 This was fixed by commits

 fe70415269693948bdfc5c8ea3abfab2b1d86c49] in my `fix/9380-stem_r10`
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/isis/bridgedb.git/log/?h=fix/9380-stem_r10
 branch].

 Those commits introduce the `bridgedb.parse.descriptors.deduplicate()`
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/isis/bridgedb.git/tree/lib/bridgedb/parse/descriptors.py?h=fix/9380-stem_r10#n149
 function], which is called in the
 `bridgedb.parse.descriptors.parseExtraInfoFiles()`
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/isis/bridgedb.git/tree/lib/bridgedb/parse/descriptors.py?h=fix/9380-stem_r10#n219
 function]. The former deduplicates all descriptors for every bridge,
 selecting only the newest descriptor for a particular bridge.
 Additionally, if any Bridge has multiple `@type bridge-extrainfo`
 descriptors with exactly the same timestamps, then a
 `bridgedb.parse.descriptors.DescriptorWarning`
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/isis/bridgedb.git/tree/lib/bridgedb/test/test_parse_descriptors.py?h=fix/9380-stem_r10#n371
 will be issued], since perfectly identical descriptors shouldn't be
 something an unmodified tor is capable of doing (and thus would imply that
 there is either a drastic regression in tor, or that someone has created a
 possibly-malicious OR implementation). Unittests and integration
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/isis/bridgedb.git/tree/lib/bridgedb/test/test_parse_descriptors.py?h=fix/9380-stem_r10#n381
 tests] which verify that these behaviours are functioning as expected have
 also been added.

 (Incidentally, these same changes also fix #2895.)

 Since #9380 has been merged into `develop` for the next release, this
 issue should be fixed in `bridgedb-0.3.0`.
