I'm not aware of the rules that you are talking about. One thing I do
know is that you don't need to use class_sethelpsymbol() for a object
called [playlist] unless the help patch is called something other than
playlist-help.pd.
So for 'unauthorized', all of the help patches are named after the
objects, so class_sethelpsymbol() is unneeded and redundant.

yeh, exactly...
but as people change rules about help files without prior notice,
i'm just bored of handling that kind of issue
the initial idea of sethelpsymbol was that you could put as help
file :
comment-peigner.la.giraffe.pd as help file and
nobody would have bothered you for that...
but freedom is gone .... with obscure rules...

Oh, I thought I was using a nightly build but I wasn't. If I add
"playlist-help.pd" to extra/unauthorized I see it finds it just fine.
Thanks,

the problem is absolutely not that,
this is perfectly correct..
problem is that playlist-help.pd is not included in pd-extended ..
