FYI, NASPRO bridges scan LADSPA_PATH and DSSI_PATH (or default paths
if not set). They won't scan LV2_PATH and won't "double" LV2 plugins.
What you probably see are LADSPA plugins being loaded where you also
have LV2 versions (e.g. swh, invada). In these cases there is a
mechanism to avoid the "duplication" using dc:replaces in ttl files (I
don't know if Lilv supports that automagically?). The bridges also
don't print anything on stdout/stderr.

BR,
