Unfortunately that's not very useful. Please supply the package name,
version and the output of "apt-cache policy <pkgname>". That should list
where the trojaned package came from (presuming no changes to
sources.list, etc., etc.).

Once you've established where it came from you can trace the provenance
of the package (likely a path from the "original" package source through
mirrors, etc.)

Thanks
