Bug description:
[Impact]
While some apport reports contain ProcCpuinfo not all of them do and it would
be useful to determine how many users can only run the i386 version of Ubuntu.
Additionally, the existing implementation gathers information about every
processor which is quite lengthy - something smaller would be better.
[Test Case]
1. Run ubuntu-bug 2vcard
2. Observe there is no report key ProcCpuinfoMinimal
With the version of apport from -proposed you will have
ProcCpuinfoMinimal which will contain information about your
processor.
To verify the whoopsie change you'll want to do the following:
1) sudo service whoopsie stop
2) sudo CRASH_DB_URL=https://daisy.staging.ubuntu.com whoopsie -f
3) kill -11 a process (but not the whoopsie one!)
4) confirm sending the report
5) Find the OOPS ID in the whoopsie output
6) Go to http://errors.staging.ubuntu.com/oops/$OOPSID
7) Verify ProcCpuinfoMinimal appears in the OOPS
[Regression Potential]
This exists in Zesty, and Artful and there have been no issues collecting the
information. Even if there are errors in the general ubuntu hook, which was
modified for this SRU, apport will continue collecting information for the
report and just add a traceback to the report about the hook error.
The general Ubuntu hook, possibly add_kernel_info() could be used,
should be modified such that the contents of /proc/cpuinfo are
gathered.
