--- Additional comment from Nadav Goldin on 2017-01-31 14:36:35 EST ---

One nice solution would be to provide paramiko v2.x RPM(which is already available in fc25) to fc24. paramiko v2.x does not depend on python2-crypto.

--- Additional comment from Fedora Update System on 2017-02-02 04:50:15 EST ---

python-paramiko-2.1.1-2.fc24 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 24. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-6bf7d0c531

--- Additional comment from Fedora Update System on 2017-02-02 16:50:06 EST ---

python-paramiko-2.1.1-2.fc24 has been pushed to the Fedora 24 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for
instructions on how to install test updates.

Comment 1 Paul Howarth 2017-02-06 12:35:54 UTC 
Created attachment 1248027 [details]
Patch against epel7 branch of python-paramiko

Patch is based on this pull request upstream:

https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/pull/714

Upstream seems to have some reservations but that's mainly to do with compatibility with older pycrypto versions. As the python-crypto maintainer in EPEL-7 I think this looks fine.
Comment 2 Igor Gnatenko 2017-02-06 18:16:12 UTC 
*** Bug 1419640 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 3 Brian J. Murrell 2017-02-06 19:48:04 UTC 
Is there a build of this anywhere that can be tested/used?
Comment 4 Orion Poplawski 2017-02-06 20:10:42 UTC 
Paul - I've given you access to the python-paramiko package.  Can you take care of this?  Thanks!
Comment 5 Brian J. Murrell 2017-02-06 20:37:14 UTC 
In my local build the patch in attachment 1248027 [details] doesn't fix the problem (apart from the bogus date in the %changelog):

Comment 6 Fedora Update System 2017-02-06 20:56:31 UTC 
python-paramiko-1.16.1-2.el7 has been submitted as an update to Fedora EPEL 7. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2017-31dd41cd3e
Comment 7 Nadav Goldin 2017-02-07 17:40:04 UTC 
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2017-31dd41cd3e fixes the issue for me, thanks for the quick push.

However, may I suggest to build paramiko v2.1.1 instead? this is what that was done in fedora 24. paramiko v2.x does not depend on python2-crypto, which is as far as I know, not actively developed nor maintained since 2013. paramiko v2.x depends on python-cryptography which is shipped with el7, and as far as compatibility paramiko v2.x is supposed to be a drop-in replacement for paramiko v1.x.
Comment 8 Paul Howarth 2017-02-07 17:44:48 UTC 
It's certainly an option to consider, but that's for the paramiko maintainer rather than me; I don't actually use it myself.
