Today a package update from an openSUSE repository has been installed here as 
python-paramiko-2.0.0-45.1 and now pyhoca-gui is running without these error 
messages and apparently fully functional.

Problem solved, case closed. Thank you for your time and explanation.

Package: pyhoca-gui

While the x2goserver and x2goclient packages are running fine on my
machines (server: OpenSUSE Leap 42.1, client: OpenSUSE 13.2), the
pyhoca-gui package can't be installed from the x2go repository:
http://packages.x2go.org/opensuse/13.2/main/x86_64/

The same applies to the version in the heuler repository which
contains nightly builds, as far as I understand. In both cases the
package carries a dependency on python-wxWidgets-2_9 which can't be
fulfilled by the OpenSUSE repositories; these offer only the 3_0 and
alternatively the 2_8 packages.

The OpenSUSE Build service version (which is some minor versions
behind the current ones on the x2go project server) actually has a
3_0 dependency (instead of 2_9) and can be installed:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/RemoteDesktop:/x2go/openSUSE_13.2/

But: this version refuses to run. When started from a terminal
command line, it throws these errors:

ak@tantalus:~> pyhoca-gui

Which leads to the situation, that pyhoca-gui can't be run on
OpenSUSE at the moment. Which I regret.

This seems to be an issue buried in Python Paramiko and they way it is
packaged for openSUSE. PyHoca-GUI relies on a working Paramiko Python
module. What it does above is

   paramiko.RSAKey.generate(RSAKEY_STRENGTH)

And this call somehow fails. Please get this fixed for your distro and
then pyhoca-gui will (hopefully) work.
