The first one means the package is empty

the second one that this package is a probably monticello package (no classes, only extensions)

Maybe we should write somewhere an explanation to all icons?

Is it possible to do it in help?

You should not always _rely_ on people reading the documentation :).  
Some will just download and leap right in.  And even if they read the
documentation, sometimes it takes a while for it to soak in.
This is something users can discover for themselves if there was a
tooltip. eg "Package A is empty" & "Package B is probably Monticello" -
perhaps a fairly long timeout (new users move slower trying to
understand things)

Expert users can turn this off in their Startup Preferences - and/or if
a small icon fits somewhere could toggle between tooltips on/off - which
at a stretch might blink a few times the first time Nautilus is opened
in a new image - to draw attention to learn how to turn of the tooltips.
hover of it.

cheers -ben

Thanks Ben!
As the others said, something like a tooltip would be great.

I think for now that a help button could be enough with a small description of each button.

one of these days we will change that because packages will be stabilized (ben was the first impacted by the different changes in RPackage).
