Ansible installation: No action detected in task

[LCMember1643]

I've installed Ansible on Ubuntu. playbooks referencing panos modules do not work. They fail with the message "ERROR! no action detected in task". Here's an example:

---
  - name: My First Test
    connection: local
    gather_facts: False
    hosts: localhost

   tasks:

     - name: check if ready
       panos_check:
          ip_address: "10.0.0.99"
          password: "admin"

I run the playbook with "ansible-playbook test.yml --check"

If I replace 'panos_check' with a known native Ansible module, it get's past the point. All of the doc I've read says the panos modules are included with the Ansible distribution, but I can't find a way to check that.

I'm stuck, and any help is appreciated!

It turned out that apt-get installed an old version. There are several more steps involved in getting the latest and greatest.
