Hi Alan,

You can find what package provides the ldd program, and then verify
the integrity of the package. If it really changed I think you should
look for any suspicious activity in your server.

I think you can find the package with dpkg -S $(which ldd) and you can
check its integrity with debsum.

ldd shouldn't change, unless you have updated your system.
