\item{availPkgs}{Vector of available packages.  Defaults to reading this list from CRAN, using \code{\link{available.packages}}}

\item{repos}{URL(s) of the 'contrib' sections of the repositories, e.g. \code{"http://cran.us.r-project.org"}. Passed to \code{\link{available.packages}}}

\item{type}{Possible values are (currently) "source", "mac.binary" and "win.binary": the binary types can be listed and downloaded but not installed on other platforms.  Passed to \code{\link{download.packages}}.}

\item{depends}{If TRUE, retrieves Depends, Imports and LinkingTo dependencies (non-recursively)}

\item{suggests}{If TRUE, retrieves Suggests dependencies (non-recursively)}

\item{enhances}{If TRUE, retrieves Enhances dependencies (non-recursively)}

\item{includeBasePkgs}{If TRUE, include base R packages in results}
