Also forgot to mention that the symlinked file is not to be found anywhere. This example was probably removed, but the link remained in the package.

It symlinks to https://github.com/asciidoc/asciidoc/blob/master/filters/graphviz/asciidoc-graphviz-sample.txt and is installed by the upstream build system, inconsistently; I'd normally suggest you ask upstream why this is the case, but they're basically ready to sunset asciidoc 8.x in favor of the asciidoc-py3 9.x repository, which is ported to python3 and has various improvements including https://github.com/asciidoc/asciidoc-py3/pull/102 which fixes this exact issue.
