You have been subscribed to a public bug by Dave Jones (waveform):

The current release of RPi.GPIO (0.63) expects to find hardware revision
information under /proc/cpuinfo. This exists under armhf kernels, but
not under arm64 kernels. By contrast, both kernels now provide revision
information under /proc/device-tree/system/linux,revision.

A patched version of RPi.GPIO 0.65 is available from
https://launchpad.net/~waveform/+archive/ubuntu/pkg/+packages which
preferentially reads revision information from this source (falling back
to /proc/cpuinfo to support older kernels). 0.65 was used as this also
fixes a couple of nasty PWM bugs, including a memory leak.

** Affects: rpi.gpio (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
