As root, run

 dpkg -i module-init-tools_3.0-pre10-4_powerpc.deb

Then, put the package on hold with

 echo module-init-tools hold | dpkg --set-selections

Otherwise, it is easy to upgrade to the tainted version again by accident.

Maybe you still have the old version in your package cache, in the
directory /var/cache/apt/archives.  If not, look in the directory
pool/main/m/module-init-tools on the nearest Debian mirror.

Regards, Jens.
