   An update that has two recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:

   This update for open-vm-tools provides the following fixes:

   - Adjust the package to allow building properly on SLE-15 and Leap-15.
   - Allow vmtoolsd.service to enable vgauthd if needed, creating the
     vmtoolsd.service.requires and vgauthd.service symlinks. (bsc#1103868)
   - Starting with 10.3.0, open-vm-tools builds with xmlsec1 by default
     (instead of building with xml-security). To keep SLE compatible,
     xml-security is explicitly selected.
   - Switch from sunrpc to libtirpc to enable building under glibc 2.27.
