The installer images have a third version component, because sometimes
they make multiple builds after a given Debian point-release. E.g. if
there's a problem with the first CD build after Debian 10.8 (installer
version 10.8.0) they might release installer version 10.8.1.
A newer installer version will only have changes to the installer, not
to the packages that end up installed on the Debian system when you're
all done.
