What does rc mean in the line of dhcp3-client?

I have installed dhcpcd. Before that was dhcp3-client installed, but
know I can't find the binarys and apt-cache remove dhcp3-client says
that the package is not instaled. Is there somewhere a explanation for
that query table. I haven't found anything in man...

thanks...
