Line ending digits in /etc/setup/installed.db

About 18% of the lines in my /etc/setup/installed.db end in " 1", the rest
i.e. large majority end in " 0".
Running setup does NOT attempt to re-install the packages identified by "
0". 
(Strange - that's exactly what I thought it would do ...)  
The set-up seems to possess full functionality.
Can anybody explain / interpret the different endings?
