Dear Iohannes, list,
first of all I noticed that in my previous message I wrote /usr/lib/extra while instead I was loading 
/usr/lib/pd/extra of course.

Secondly, I enabled the verbose option as Iohannes suggested and I noticed the following:

1- creating the objects "declare -stdpath cyclone" or  "declare -path cyclone" does not work, one 
need to create the objects "declare -sdtpath /usr/lib/pd/extra/cyclone" or  "declare -path /usr/lib/pd/extra/cyclone".

2- HOWEVER, if I do the following: 

- I created a patch "loadlib" with inside the object "declare -stdpath /usr/lib/pd/extra/cyclone" (or  "declare -path /usr/lib/pd/extra/cyclone")
- I placed the patch "loadlib" in the main patch where the gate object is present (the subpatch is in the same folder of the main patch).

Result: gate can't be created. It seems to me that the problem is that pd loads only at the very last the 
subpatch "loadlib", after having searched all other possibilities for creating the object gate.

Why does this happen?
Is there a way to force pd to search first for the "loadlib" subpatch? 


Here the Verbose so you can notice:

Any suggestion?

start Pd in verbose mode and watch the Pd-console how and where it
searches for the object.
make conclusions.
