** Description changed:

- apport does not currently collect data from /proc/cpuinfo and this would
- be useful to determine how many users can only run the i386 version of
- Ubuntu.
+ [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 the package from -proposed you will have 
ProcCpuinfoMinimal which will contain information about your processor.
+ 
+ [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.
