Hej Kenneth, thanks for the answer. I agree that this is a sufficient workaround, but for an LTS version of Ubuntu, I think it would be worthwhile considering backporting this fix.

People will use Ubuntu 18.04 for many years to come and many will hit this issue, especially people using it on servers and doing backups with duplicity. Installing packages from pip makes updates more complicated and dangerous and is certainly not the desired state for backup solutions. Maybe the maintainer of paramiko, @jbouse, can comment on that?
