Package: libasound2-doc
Version: 1.0.8-3

In the documentation for e.g. snd_pcm_poll_descriptors there are
several references to other functions.  However the name of these
functions has been missed out.  In a browser it looks like this:

    For reading the returned events of poll descriptor after poll()
    system call, use function. The field values in pollfd structs may
                     ^^^^^^^^ missing function name here
    be bogus regarding the stream direction from the application
    perspective (POLLIN might not imply read direction and POLLOUT
    might not imply write), but the function does the right
    "demangling".

In the HTML source it looks like this:

    For reading the returned events of poll descriptor after poll()
    system call, use <a class="el" href="group___p_c_m.html#ga32"></a>
    function. The field values in pollfd structs may be bogus
    regarding the stream direction from the application perspective
    (POLLIN might not imply read direction and POLLOUT might not imply
    write), but the <a class="el" href="group___p_c_m.html#ga32"></a>
    function does the right "demangling".<p>

As you can see the reference to the function is there but for some
reason has been expanded to an empty <A> element.
