   An update that has one recommended fix can now be installed.

Description:

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

   Update to 10.3.0 (build 8931395)

   - Starting with 10.3.0, open-vm-tools builds with xmlsec1 by default
     (instead
     of building with xml-security). To revert to the old behavior and build
      with xml-security, use the option '--enable-xmlsecurity' for the
      ./configure command.

   -  Remove vgauthd.service from the %pre and %post section in the spec
      file. This allows vmtoolsd.service to enable vgauthd if needed which
      creates the vmtoolsd.service.requires/vgauthd.service symlink.
