That command shows RPM's that are not part of your currently enabled
repositories. It's very handy, when switching repositories, to
identify ones that you don't want sticking around. In this case, it
would help reveal packages from RHEL or CentOS or whatever you
switched *from* that had different versions and might cause depencency
conflicts.
