[Reportbug-maint] Bug#894208: wrong assumptions about /proc/cpuinfo

[Aurelien Jarno]

Package: reportbug
Version: 7.1.10
Severity: minor
User: debian-riscv at lists.debian.org
Usertags: riscv64

Hi,

reportbug determine the number of CPU on the machine by using parsing
/proc/cpuinfo. It counts the number of "processor" lines, but that
doesn't work for example on alpha, sparc or riscv64. Alpha has already
been special cases, howver it looks wrong to parse cpuinfo while python
already provides the function os.cpu_count() to get that value. Please
consider using it instead.

Thanks,
Aurelien
