It's not clear what themuso was referring to back in 2012, but as nevion alluded to above, qpaeq is 'just' a Python program.
It's the GUI required (absent equivalent software) for the end-user to do something useful with the capability exposed by the modules (which do come stock, but aren't loaded by default).

See:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/plain/src/utils/qpaeq

Perhaps the problematic dependency back then was PyQt4 or sip?  Or not,
this is what's known as "unfounded speculation" on my part.

Bug description:
  pulseaudio has support for built in equalizer, but ubuntu does not
  have enabled it. pulseudio provides module module-equalizer-sink which
  needs to be enabled at compile time.

  In src/Makefile.am is this code:

  if HAVE_DBUS
  if HAVE_FFTW
  modlibexec_LTLIBRARIES += \
  		module-equalizer-sink.la
  bin_SCRIPTS += utils/qpaeq
  endif
  endif

  So for equalizer module is needed package fftw-dev. Please add needed
  fftw packages to pulseaudio build depends for equalizer support.
