No, it means the core and ssl have been built against that was updated
and the other were not. *THAT* is why they were held in the first place.

upgrade == basically upgrade anything capable of being upgraded without
removing anything.

dist-upgrade == upgrade everything possible even if it removes other
things.

If you explicitly install webmin-core and webmin-ssl then it will remove
those pieces that are no longer able to be supported with the new
dooziwhatsit.

Basically, wait a few days, the other packages will be uploaded/rebuilt
using the newer version of the thingamajigger that was upgraded
underneath them.

HTH.
