It looks to me like the problem is: "files list file for package `xcalc' is missing final newline" so where do I find the files list file for package `xcalc' so I can add a newline to it?
Probably /var/lib/dpkg/info/xcalc.list
Did your /var get full while installing something? I'd suggest reinstalling xcalc at least.
Hope that helps,
