I've created a package with a custom action but when I look at the logs after installing the package I see the error
Could not add package actions to the package xml definition, the xml did not parse
with this stack trace
System.Xml.XmlException: There are multiple root elements. Line 1, position 21.\r\n at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(Exception e)\r\n at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(String res, String arg)\r\n at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseDocumentContent()\r\n at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Read()\r\n at System.Xml.Linq.XElement.ReadElementFrom(XmlReader r, LoadOptions o)\r\n at System.Xml.Linq.XElement.Load(XmlReader reader, LoadOptions options)\r\n at System.Xml.Linq.XElement.Parse(String text, LoadOptions options)\r\n at System.Xml.Linq.XElement.Parse(String text)\r\n at Umbraco.Core.Packaging.PackageDefinitionXmlParser.ToXml(PackageDefinition def) in D:\a\1\s\src\Umbraco.Core\Packaging\PackageDefinitionXmlParser.cs:line 62
The install shows as successfully completed but my custom action was not executed. Below is the package config (with somethings removed for clarity). Any assistance would be great

I took a look at the installedPackages.config file in App_Data/packages and noticed how every element is lowercase, which made me wonder if the documentation is wrong (I have my suspicions). So I tried writing my action with lowercase despite what the documentation says, and I tried writing them with capitalisation, but nothing works. I think the key is figuring out why it fails parsing the XML. Everything but the actions seems to parse just fine.
If I manage to solve this I'll get back with an answer.

Got same error... gess you didn't solve it yet...
I get the same warning but in my case custom actions are executed. Installedpackages.config however has actions element empty
