I just took a little look into this.
RedHat (I was looking at the CentOS packages) provide ipcalc as part of the
initscripts package.
I pulled down the source rpm and extracted the code.
ipcalc is provided in there as a small C program (amongst a whole bunch of
other stuff).
I was able to make
Package: ipcalc
Version: 0.41-2
Followup-For: Bug #628955
As some blogs comment on the web[0] the ipcalc of fedora seems to have ipv6
support. But I check the upstream web page and don't seems to have it, I guess
is a custom fedora patch.
Will be great to see it implemented on debian.

This package has no support for IPv6 addresses, and its description does
not mention it is IPv4-only.
If it cannot be fixed to support IPv6, maybe it should be deprecated?
We do have sipcalc, which does support IPv6.
