Slots is for the components that have more than one "item/unit"
within a package.  For example, a dual or quad operational amplifier.
I find it a bit strange that it issues a warning for something that is
the "normal" situations --- most components do not have slots; many
do, but I don't find it reasonable that it gives you a warning because
your symbols does not use slots.   Sounds to me more like a
"Notice" or an "FYI" rather than a "Warning".

Carlos
