Hello,

I don't know why Google couldn't find it but

RSiteSearch("binGroup*")

found binGroup2. It's in the 3rd page but it did find it.

Google typically offers suggestions if my spelling is a bit off, and I get hits that are close. I searched for the binGroup package in the usual way and found that it is no longer supported. I asked the authors only to discover that there is a binGroup2 package.
