System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19042-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 496.76

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.0.0, branch: SelectThrough (modified), commit date: 2021-12-15 12:21, hash: 6349dd43b1
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
When saving a keymap either by overriding it (clicking the + button and typing the existing keymap name) or by exporting it and importing it back, all key bindings created by addons are duplicated, creating confusing, broken and bloated keymaps. As a result, users are forced to manually edit keymap .py files to fix the corruption.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Activate an addon which adds custom key bindings (Use NodeWrangler as an example. It adds lots of key bindings, is widely used and comes bundled with Blender)
Save existing keymap under a new name
Export it
Import it back
Result: The large amount of key bindings in Node Editor section of keymap created by NodeWrangler is now doubled. Exporting and Importing the keymap again will triple the bindings, and so on.
Expected: The addon key bindings are not doubled when importing the keymap.

I can confirm this, I had this issue. The only way I found to resolve it was to completely reset to defaults by deleting my custom config and remaking it from scratch. Since then I avoid exporting and reimporting keymap

Hi Ludvik, similar problem has been reported before: blender/blender-addons#88518 (Add-ons with keymap entries generate duplicates in keymap)

Will close. Feel free to comment or reopen if you think this report is not same as blender/blender-addons#88518. I might have misunderstood your report.

Bit strange because I no more able to reproduce blender/blender-addons#88518.
