No, the current release is 1.21.0. It might take a while until the
package is available for all of our products because it'll go through
many reviews.

If you always want to get the latest version of Machinery, you can add
the systems management repository to your distribution.

How it works:
1. Go to
https://build.opensuse.org/package/repositories/systemsmanagement:machinery/machinery
and select your distribution
2. Click "Go to download repository"
3. Copy the URL
4. Type as root `zypper ar [COPIED_LINK] systemsmanagement:machinery`
5. Refresh your repositories `zypper ref`
6. Now run an update `zypper up` - if nothing happens, try `zypper dup`
(I'm not sure if `up` is enough)
7. Done!

So you did an inspection of your system and it recognizes "ext3" as
file system but you're actually using "btrfs" ? Maybe search inside the
kiwi config for "btrfs".
