Concerning poezio, it depends on python-potr (and is its only dependent),
which in turn depends on python-pycrypto.

Concerning python-potr, I am a bit at a loss. There is
   https://github.com/python-otr/pure-python-otr
with their latest release 1.0.2 in 2018 and a big bold comment
"This software is experimental and potentially insecure. Do not rely on it".

Pypi has this:
   https://pypi.org/project/python-otr/
which I suppose is a different project.

Would it make sense to remove python-potr and poezio?
I am not confident with crypto libraries that call themselves insecure...

Andreas
