It means that I did not installed a certain software due to the dev not providing any binaries or at least making it a little bit easier to compile it myself.
Fyi, it wouldn’t necessarily be better with a binary if you are missing dependencies, since it might have dynamically linked libraries (I’d say it probably does but tbh I’m not sure whether dynamic or static linked libraries are more common with Linux programs shared on the internet as my experience there is more with building them for work stuff rather than downloading and installing).
