What OS and Pd version are you using? How did you install Pd?

Pd 0.50-2 on my macOS 10.14 system creates all extra objects in the general help patch. As far as I recall, it always has so this sounds like a bug or misconfiguration issue.

I realized that although help-intro.pd (accessible by right clicking a
blank section of canvas and going to Help) lists objects in pd/extra, those
objects wouldn't create until I added the path.

It that the expected default behavior? It seems to me that objects included
in Pd vanilla shouldn't require extra path additions or declarations. Maybe
there is a good reason for this though that I'm not aware of?
