From b7017450978ef38bf14415b457bc57d50de150df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Date: Sun, 6 May 2018 12:00:11 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] docs: can.rst: fix a footnote reference As stated at: http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/restructuredtext/basics.html#footnotes A footnote should contain either a number, a reference or an auto number, e. g.: [1], [#f1] or [#]. While using [*] accidentaly works for html, it fails for other document outputs. In particular, it causes an error with LaTeX output, causing all books after networking to not be built. So, replace it by a valid syntax.
