It is the typical notation for "equal to" and is used in thousands of
packages. Instead of "=" it can also be ">=", "<=", ">" and "<", for
example. Here, a package "xine" with exactly version "1.1.5" is
needed, so xine-lib-1.1.5.

It is a Fedora Extras package, which is at 1.1.6 already.

What repositories do you use? Which package requires this old version
of xine-lib?
