Hi Tom,
In the meantime, I created a ticket for the issue, and prepared a patch. It has been accepted, and a pull request is created to fix the issue.
For your information, the project is a memory el-keyer.

Lev,
I've run into what you describe periodically.?
For the most part, I would probably make a quick copy of the similar part, change the name to the part you are using, and the pin direction, stick in a project specific library and call it a day.?
I? have also used/checked SnapEDA () when I need some of the newest parts.? They may already have it ready for download.
You need to check the download for the newest parts.? ?I was going to use a PIC part in a DIP-40 format.? When I was checking the setup, I discovered the DIP-40 download file actually contained the layout for the 44 pin surface mount part.
Overall, I have had good luck with snapeda.? Plus it frees up your cycles that can go to other tasks.
