<description brief="Paramiko SSH library for Python">
Download-based ROS installer for the Paramiko library by
Robey Pointer (http://www.lag.net/paramiko/).
Paramiko is a library for making SSH2 connections (client or
server). Emphasis is on using SSH2 as an alternative to SSL for
making secure connections between python scripts. All major ciphers
and hash methods are supported. SFTP client and server mode are
both supported too.
Paramiko is used by the roslaunch tool to enable remote node launching.
While paramiko is available via package managers, the versions available
are grossly out of date.

This ROS package wraps Paramiko 1.7.5 "Ernest", which was released
on July 19, 2009. While paramiko is available via OS package managers,
the versions available are out of date and do not contain the
latest security fixes. This package will be updated as new versions
of Paramiko are released.
