Rails - May 2006 - acts_as_taggable plugin, duplicate entry

I just switched from using gems to the plugin. How can I prevent 
duplicate entries tags or remove tags on an update. The following did 
the trick when I was using gems. But does not work with the plugin.

@entity.tag(params[:tags], :clear => true)

Thanks
