Anyway, what I do to prevent my rules from getting out of hand is every time I add a rule, I first delete the very same rule. This prevents the duplicates, at least.
So every place in my script that I might have:
IP RULE ADD <some rule>
I place before it:
IP RULE DEL <some rule>
Works for me.

Subject: how to remove rules
hi I have trying to remove the extra rules from my routing tables, however with no luck Also I want to know these duplicate entries have an effect on packets going routed? I have this overwhelming rules lists from my predessor who added the "ip rule add fwmark" entries in firewall script, and on each run of firewall script its creates an extra entry in routing table. Now what I want to get rid of an extras "from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out" leaving only one that what's I needs.
here is the output of "ip rule ls"
0: from all lookup local 32742: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32743: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32744: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32745: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32746: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32747: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32748: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32749: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32750: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32751: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32752: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32753: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32754: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32755: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32756: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32757: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32758: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32759: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32760: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32761: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32762: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32763: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32764: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32765: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup squid.out 32766: from all lookup main 32767: from all lookup 253
