 Certain chain of action lead to having duplicate categories when importing
 a wordpress export.
 The steps to reproduce:
 1. Create a Category but leave the slug to be auto-generated
 2. Add a new post and attach it to that category
 3. Change only the slug of the category
 4. Export
 5. Import
 6. You will see that your category has been duplicated.

 I just tested this in 2 fresh installs and the issue occurs
