On today's Pd-extended 0.42.5-rc3 for Ubuntu lucid i386 I get this
message if I open routeOSC-help: error: 'routeOSC-help.pd' is a deprecated name format for a help
patch. Please rename to 'routeOSC-help-help.pd'! I can't find it in the source anywhere. Does anyone know where
it's coming from?It's coming from s_path.c, function open_via_helppath, label
gotone_deprecated, line 428....which exists only in the pd-extended version I think.
It's because of a bug in mrpeach/osc/routeOSC.c, function
routeOSC_setup, line 146, which reads : class_sethelpsymbol(routeOSC_class, gensym("routeOSC-help.pd")); when it ought to be : class_sethelpsymbol(routeOSC_class, gensym("routeOSC"));Ah yes, thanks. It's fixed in svn now.

Really, the whole class_sethelpsymbol() function should be removed
since Pd will automatically assume the classname is the base of the
helpfile name. That function is only used for times when the help
patch has a different name than the object, which is bad practice IMHO.
