SOLVED NOW .. Found: http://search.cpan.org/~fusinv/FusionInventory-Agent-Task-ESX-2.2.1.. and installed it, so now I have a /usr/local/bin/fusioninventory-esx ..
Have now deleted the OS package .. I think it would be a good idea to bundle fusioninventory along with all these utilities both for OS install and for CPAN .. that will keep things better coordinated ...
