Symbol has extra pin

Hello !

I have a really annoying situation here where Allegro cannot load a footprint after importing a netlist. The error is :
ERROR(SPMHNI-196): Symbol 'TO254P1524X483-4_3N' for device 'DIODE_D2PAK_2L...' has extra pin '1'.

The footprint has 3 pins : 1, 3, 4
The part has 3 pins : 1 (zero length, pin ignore), 3, 4.

The footpint : 

The part : 

I tried to remove the "pin ignore" property from pin 1, but then it displays a square on the schematic where the pin is. There is a "pin visible" option but it is only available to power pins...

Why is allegro telling me that the footprint has extra pin 1 when it doesn't ? What should I do in order for the netlist to be imported correctly ?

EDIT : when trying to quickplace, here is the error given for that same problem : 

Cannot place symbol: CR153000 / DIODE_D2PAK_2L... / TO254P1524X483-4_3N due to ERROR(SPMHGE-82): Pin numbers do not match between symbol and component. Run dev_check on device file for more information.

I tried running this command on the BRD file, on the DRA file of the symbol with the problem, I tried running it on Capture. The command isn't recognized by any of these.
