question about "dpkg -l"

What do ii & ri mean in the 1st column of the dpkg output?
ii  xlibs          4.1.0-9        X Window System client libraries
ii  zlib1g         1.1.3-5        compression library - runtime
ii  zlib1g-dev     1.1.3-5        compression library - development
rc  debconf-tiny   0.2.80.17      Tiny subset of debconf for the base 
rc  pump           0.7.3-2        Simple DHCP/BOOTP client for 2.2.x

ri  acct           6.3.5-17       The GNU Accounting utilities.
ri  adduser        3.11.1         Add users and groups to the system.

"man dpkg" isn't very specific.  Does it have to do with PACKAGE 
SELECTION STATES "install" & "reinst-required"?  Then what would
rc mean?

TIA
