Bibliography in DocBook5, continued problems

[Niels Müller <neinalways@gmail.com>]

A month ago I tried airing my bilbiography problem here, but none of the 
few answers gave me *the* hint to a solution. Let me try again:

I create course materials from several docbook.xml files with a 
biliography at the end. My books are in a bibliography file and 
referenced in the material through a bibliography file with empty 
elements in it. Used to work. Now it doesn't.
I have played with various ways of doing the ref to the actual file.
My customization has:

<xsl:param 
name="bibliography.collection">file:///home/nml/.docbook/biblio.xml</xsl:param>

A fragment of the document bilbiography file:

    <bibliomixed id="Xue14"/>
    <bibliomixed id="yan09"/>
    <bibliomixed id="DKnuth86">Donald E. Knuth. <citetitle>Computers and
Typesetting: Volume B, TeX: The Program</citetitle>. Addison-Wesley,
1986.  ISBN 0-201-13437-3.
</bibliomixed>
</bibliography>

The bibliography file with all the books has (fragment)


  <bibliomixed id="Xue14">
    <author>
      <personname>
        <surname>Xue</surname>, <firstname>Qiang</firstname>
      </personname>
    </author>, et al.
    <citetitle>The Definitive Guide to Yii 2.0</citetitle>.
    <publishername>Yii Software LLC</publishername>,
    <pubdate>2014</pubdate>
  </bibliomixed>

The generated output has (fragment)

[Xue14] Error: no bibliography entry: Xue14 found in 
file:///home/nml/.docbook/biblio.xml

[yan09] Error: no bibliography entry: yan09 found in 
file:///home/nml/.docbook/biblio.xml

[DKnuth86] Donald E. Knuth. Computers and Typesetting: Volume B, TeX: 
The Program. Addison-Wesley, 1986. ISBN 0-201-13437-3.


If I take the file statement from file:///home/nml/.docbook/biblio.xml
into my browser it displays the tree structure of the file, so the file 
does exist :)

My makefile:

html:
                rm -rf site
                mkdir site
                xmllint --noent --xinclude \
                                module.xml > /tmp/docbresolved.xml \
                                2>./errloglint
                xsltproc \
                                --output site/ \
                                docbook.xsl \
                                /tmp/docbresolved.xml \
                                2>./errlogxslt && \
                tar czf site.tgz site/*
                echo "site.tgz ready for deployment"

My software

nml1 webdev  $ xmllint --version
xmllint: using libxml version 20902
   compiled with: Threads Tree Output Push Reader Patterns Writer SAXv1

nml1 webdev  $

The stylesheets

  <xsl:import 
href="/usr/share/xml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-1.78.1/xhtml5/chunk.xsl"/>


Everything works beautifully except the bib.
It's driving me crazy. please help.
