They are in the bsdmainutils package:

$ head /usr/share/calendar/calendar.judaic

$ dpkg -S /usr/share/calendar/{,2002/}calendar.judaic

 This package contains lots of small programs many people expect to find
 when they use a BSD-style Unix system.
 .
 Included are: banner, ncal, cal, calendar, col, colcrt, colrm, column, 
from,
 hexdump, look, lorder, ul, write.
 .
 This package used to contain whois and vacation, which are now 
distributed
 in their own packages. Also here was tsort, which is now in the 
"textutils"
 package, version 2.0-1 and later.

No doubt that a tool that is designed for the job should do the work 
better then a generic tool.
