Trying to Upgrade to 17.5 from 17.0.2 fails with the attached vmware-installer log

Note the error message : "Exception: VMIS:[Errno 2] No such file or directory: path('/etc/security/limits.conf')"

There is is no /etc/security/limits.conf on opensuse tumbleweed. So I created that file with touch. An that worked as workaround
