It probably means the slave cylinder needs to be rebuilt but I suppose it could be the master cylinder too.

Either that or the mechanical linkage is broken. You need somebody to get under truck and you push clutch (or lay on the ground yourself) and when the clutch is pushed if you can see the 'arm' move in bell-housing the right back to Full_of_Regrets answer. But if you see no movement, follow the linkage all the way to the pedal
