+"""
+Regression tests for ``PinLocator.parse_symbol_definition`` when a symbol
+defines the same pin number more than once.
+
+Background
+----------
+Some community-generated symbol libraries — for example
+``PCM_Diode_Schottky_AKL:MBRS130`` — include both an outer "real" pin
+with a visible stub (non-zero ``length``) and an inner zero-length "ghost"
+pin at a different ``at`` coordinate. Both definitions share the same pin
+number. Conceptually the ghost is an internal join used for symbol
+graphic anchoring; the real outer pin is where wires and labels are
+placed by the schematic author.
+
+Before this fix, ``parse_symbol_definition`` stored pins as
+``pins[pin_data["number"]] = pin_data`` — a plain assignment. Each
+duplicate-numbered definition encountered during recursion overwrote the
+previous one. The recursion order put the ghost pins last for the MBRS130
+symbol, so the ghost won and ``get_pin_location`` returned a coordinate
+that did not match any wire/label. As a knock-on effect,
+``get_connections_for_net`` failed to discover diode pins on the rails
+they were wired to (e.g. ``D1/1`` on ``+BATT``).
+
+The fix: when storing a duplicate-numbered pin, keep the entry with the
+greater ``length``. The outer "real" pin has length > 0 (a visible stub
+out to the wire-attach point); the inner ghost has length == 0. Ties
+resolve to first-encountered, so legitimate same-length duplicates
+(e.g., per-unit repetitions in multi-unit symbols) keep stable ordering
+and existing behaviour.
