Yes.

This is plain wrong ;)  The package is called "docbook-xsl-stylesheets";
the version number is "1.38", etc.; thus you can customize the DTD to
accept:

<para>The <package p_version="1.38" p_revision="2"
p_maintaineremail="">docbook-xsl-stylesheets</package> is
available as <filename
role="deb">docbook-xsl-stylesheets-1.38-2.deb</filename>.</para>

Additionally, watch your whitespace usage.  Sooner or later XML will
bite you.

In my LaTeX docs I'm using \paket{docbook-xsl-stylesheets} -- nice for
indexing purposes (Paket = package).
