%autosetup -p1 -a1 -a2 failed to extract all referenced tarball. Workaround is to use setup q -a1 -2 following by autopatch -p1.
Tested on Fedora 38 running on RPM version 4.18.1.

Known issue #1204

It would be nice if rpm's argument parser could have a way to parse/accept repeated flags

[kloczek]

Nevertheless it is possible to hadle such cases by:

%setup -q -a1 -a2
%autopatch

[pmatilai]

That wont work, %autopatch needs an accompanying %autosetup to set it up.
What you can do though (in rpm >= 4.18) is

%autosetup -N
# for any additional sources you may have
%__rpmuncompress -x %{SOURCE2}
...
%__rpmuncompress -x %{SOURCE6}
%autopatch

And of course, it would be nice if macros handled multiple instances of the same argument. That's ticket #546.
