I assume it was renamed in the past: there are now libqalculate, qalculate-gtk and qalculate-kde as source package names.

Thank you for the candidate version.

I've unsubscribed the universe-sponsors-team, and assigned Sarah, who has been working with Debian to get this updated in both distributions.
