Putting my python@ hat on, I'd suggest to use this syntax instead:

${PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX}paramiko>0:${PORTSDIR}/security/py-paramiko

The main point is to depend on package, not on specific file in the 
filesystem.

But the actual problem is that this port, being a python script, make it 
effectively useless when installing from a package. Because the 
dependencies are defined as BUILD one, while it actually needs them to 
run. So, they should be defined as RUN_DEPENDS only or, if the port 
checks of their existence withing installation process, both on BUILD_ 
and RUN_DEPENDS.
