Unfortunately I am unable to reproduce this on harris.debian.org (armhf 
porterbox), with a clean jessie schroot. This looks similar to #355374, 
which was not reproducible as well. Furthermore, these messages look at 
least suspicious (XML comments cannot contain double dashes?!), so I 
tend to think this might be a problem with xsltproc.

Can you reliably reproduce it on your system?

Thanks for pointing this out, I'll have to check that the udev rules are 
there on all arch's, since it seems to ship them with a ".disabled" 
suffix if it can't find udevadm/udevinfo.
