It means /exactly/ what the help display says. It's a *new* package in
the repo. Even though you installed from DVD, the standard install
process goes online to fetch updated packages. When the install
finishes, you will already have that online repo added to your
sources.list file. If you don't want to use that repo, simply disable
it in Synaptic.
