Follow-up Comment #2:
I think this is related to the handling of the load path, rather than the help
function.
I loaded the symbolic package, and then used which to find out what m-file was
associated with "@sym/beta". Turns out, it thinks its the core Octave
function. If you use the full filename with extension then it works
("@sym/beta.m").
octave:19> which @sym/beta
'@sym/beta' is a function from the file
/home/rik/local/share/octave/5.0.1/m/specfun/beta.m
octave:20> which @sym/beta.m
'@sym/beta.m' is the file /home/rik/.octavepkg/symbolic-2.7.1/@sym/beta.m
Not that you should need to do this, but "help @sym/beta.m" works for me.
