The problem
self.selected_archives = None is initialized in ArchiveTab.__init__()
(src/vorta/views/archive_tab.py, line 157) but is never read anywhere in
the codebase. It already has a # TODO: remove unused variable comment.
The local variable selected_archives used elsewhere in the same file
(lines 532, 973) is unrelated — those are local variables, not the instance attribute.
Requested Solution
Delete line 157 (self.selected_archives = None # TODO: remove unused variable).
No other changes needed since nothing references the instance variable.
Alternatives
None — straightforward dead code removal.
Additional context
Low priority, 1-line fix. Could be a good first issue for new contributors.
