Package: open-vm-tools
Version: 10.1.5-5055683
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Please consider improving Build-depends to accept either
libssl1.0-dev or libssl-dev as that will make backporting easier.

The dependency changed from libssl-dev to libssl1.0-dev due to
bug 828476 (ie. open-vm-tools can't be built with openssl 1.1).
Still, series that don't have libssl1.0-dev have libssl-dev
on 1.0 (confirmed for both Debian and Ubuntu).

Please condider the following debdiff:
