Hi,

the Machinery team is happy to announce the release of Machinery 1.2.0.
Machinery is a systems management toolkit for Linux:

contains many other improvements and bug fixes.

The changes in detail are:
* Added AutoYaST export for system descriptions

* Prevent scopes from being inspected multiple times
* Keep already extracted results after canceling an inspection
* Don't fail on file validation errors, but report them as warnings
* List scopes more natural with a space after comma
* Use UTF-8 for displaying HTML report
* Do not ignore Btrfs subvolumes during unmanaged-files inspection
* Store KIWI and AutoYaST exports in subdirectories
* Skip Gnome Virtual File System mounts on inspection
* Skip special file systems like proc, devtmpfs and so on
* Show names of packages where changed config files come from
* File extraction status is now shown in the comparison output
* Fixed image building issue when the repository alias consisted spaces
* Fixed compare output for unmanaged-files
* Added hint for analyze how to show the diffs
* Added hint to recommend ssh-copy-id if passwordless logins are not 
possible
