compiling errors on Android/Termux

[nerd190]

Hi! I've never had any problems compiling this on Android via Termux but I get this error now:

error[E0308]: mismatched types
   --> /data/data/com.termux/files/home/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/sys-info-0.7.0/lib.rs:618:22

    |        --------      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected enum `std::result::Result`, found `()`
    |        |
    |        implicitly returns `()` as its body has no tail or `return` expression
    |
    = note:   expected enum `std::result::Result<timeval, Error>`
            found unit type `()`

error: aborting due to previous error

error: could not compile `sys-info`

Not sure if sys-info is a new lib? or perhaps it a new version of it causing the issue?

[tversteeg]

sys-info is a library that's a dependency of bugreport another library I've added in 0.4.1.

I've found the compilation error you're getting, and it seems to be fixed in version 0.8 of the crate: FillZpp/sys-info-rs#67

The only problem is that bugreport still uses the 0.8 version, so I've created a PR to fix that: sharkdp/bugreport#5
