I'll download the installer from there.
But, I still cannot install the pkg_resources module that meson wants to
start the build of pulseaudio-equalizer:

Sorry, Rich, I've never dealt with this so someone else will have to
give suggestions.
I would try to see if there are any versions available. It could be
that meson says it needs version x but only version y > x is available.
Pip will quit but meson may very well work with the available version
anyway. So I would try to install pkg_resources on its own, and then
see if the meson build can succeed. No guarantees, but I've seen this
work before. So
python3.9 -m pip install --user pkg_resources
Or, to see what versions if any are available:
python3.9 -m pip install --user pkg_resources==
# NO spaces allowed before the "==".
There is a pip option to ignore the version specification and just leave
the existing package installed as is, and this could help if the full
installation wants to downgrade the pgk_resources that you just installed.
You can also use the --dry-run option to see what would happen without
actually changing anything.
