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?

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with Pd 0.50-1 compiled from source (thanks to Miller who helped me figure that out!). When I open help-intro.pd, I get the following errors:
sigmund~ ... couldn't create bonk~ ... couldn't create choice ... couldn't create hilbert~ ... couldn't create complex-mod~ ... couldn't create loop~ ... couldn't create lrshift~ ... couldn't create pd~ ... couldn't create rev1~ ... couldn't create rev2~ ... couldn't create rev3~ ... couldn't create stdout ... couldn't create bob~ ... couldn't create
These are all of the objects listed under the heading "-------- "EXTRA" (patches and externs in pd/extra) ---------"
I have Pd installed to "~/Documents/Pd/pd-0.50-1" and the objects above won't create unless I add "~/Documents/Pd/pd-0.50-1/extra" to the paths, in which case they work fine.

how did you install Pd into that location? how do you start it?
why didn't you do a 'make install'. Why didn't you install Pd via 'apt'? Ubuntu 19.10 (Eoan Ermine) comes with Pd-0.50.0 (which is practically the same as 0.50-2 on linux)
