- Remove Paramiko dependency (easy task): It's easy to add a dependency but hard to remove it. We found that it's not really essential for our application to parse each SSH key a user has. So this task would remove Paramiko and just do a rudimentary check to see if a file is a private SSH key. See [this issue](https://github.com/borgbase/vorta/issues/1559).
