but following select works fine

select ' (43.6038,48.8664536),(1.3620777,1.44327)'::box = '
(43.6038,48.8664536),(1.3620777,1.44327)'::box;
?column? ----------

(1 row)

What does it means ?

GROUP BY requires b-tree sort operators. Although there is a '=' operator for box, there is no b-tree opclass.
