Hello Richard,

Not sure where it's described/defined, but if I understand you
correctly, it means there's an update available for an uninstalled
package.

Yes, it does;  The installation of Debian almost inevitably creates a
non-DVD repo which can have new packages delivered to it.  So, you're
using a repo (or repos) other than the install DVDs and new packages have
arrived in that repo.  This can happen as a natural consequence of
migration from sid to testing, for example.
