Hi,

Found in available.packages man page:

   Value:

      A matrix with one row per package, row names the package names and
      column names ‘"Package"’, ‘"Version"’, ‘"Priority"’, ‘"Depends"’,
      ‘"Imports"’, ‘"LinkingTo"’, ‘"Suggests"’, ‘"Enhances"’,
      ‘"OS_type"’, ‘"License"’, ‘"File"’ and ‘"Repository"’.  Additional
      columns can be specified using the ‘fields’ argument.

"Archs" is missing from the above list:

   > colnames(available.packages())
    [1] "Package"    "Version"    "Priority"   "Depends"    "Imports"
    [6] "LinkingTo"  "Suggests"   "Enhances"   "OS_type"    "License"
   [11] "Archs"      "File"       "Repository"

Thanks,
H.
