Difference between package-1.0 and package-1.0p0

Hi, I'm installing some packages, but I don't understand what does p...
implicates.

For examples, there are different packages for Mozilla Firefox 1.0.6:

mozilla-firefox-1.0.6.tgz
mozilla-firefox-1.0.6p0.tgz
mozilla-firefox-1.0.6p3.tgz

What is the difference?

Thx, ;)

pN is used when a package is updated but software version remains the
same. for example packaging fixes, security patches etc.

use the newest version available.
