Description

on AIX rudder-agent needs 20 packages as dependencies to be installed

It most of them comes from Curl, which needs a dozen of packages (openldap, libssh2, etc etc)

We should instead trying to not use curl on aix by managing tcp requests by ourselves, or maybe using a perl dependencies used by fusion

First, we could use plain Perl to upload the inventory file using LWP, as we already have a Perl userland, if curl is not available: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8463187/how-to-make-a-http-put-request-using-lwp

Interesting note:

As of 6.04, LWP::UserAgent has a put helper, so you can now do:

$ua->put( $url )
