</I>Thank you Pascal for your reply, so it was injected (in other words 
&quot;manually uploaded&quot;).

I may understand that in some circumstances there is a need to do manual 
operations over our buildservers, but please for the sake of security 
and credibility of Mageia prohibit uploading locally built packages into 
the outside world, servers! Without it a user or developer cannot see if 
a local mirror (or someone in-the-middle) is injecting Trojan packages 
or not.
