qalculate:all
$ sudo apt-get remove `deborphan`

Long ago, the `qalculate` package became a dummy package migrating over to `qalculate-gtk`. The way to work around this message is to run `apt-mark manual qalculate-gtk` or `apt install qalculate-gtk` to mark the new package name as manually installed.
This dummy package no longer exists in recent versions, so marking this as fixed.
