As I've noted before, Trusty already has the equaliser module available
in the standard pulseaudio package:

$ dpkg -L pulseaudio | grep eq
/usr/lib/pulse-4.0/modules/module-equalizer-sink.so

So at least in Trusty this is actually fixed. All the critical "hard to
fix" blumping is now in position.

Having a GUI frontend for it, is a completely different matter, which
has nothing to do with this bug, and has nothing to do with pulseaudio
(to which this bug applies).

If one were to have a proper equalizer GUI frontend in Ubuntu, it would
have to be integrated into unity-control-center's sound panel:

$ dpkg -L unity-control-center | grep -i panels | grep -i sound
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/unity-control-center-1/panels/libsound.so

So for that a feature request would have to be filed against the unity-
control-center package.

Title:
  Enable equalizer

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.
