That=E2=80=99s a matter for your gnetlist back end writer. If the back =
end calls (get-package-attribute) it gets the first one. If it calls =
(get-all-package-attributes) it gets a list of all of them. Of course, =
what it should do with such a list depends on the downstream flow.

How to do this consistently and sanely in the future is issue 105 at the =
lepton-eda github repository.
