If you try to start (kde4 edu package) step from command line you will see the following output.

[P.S. : - I think qalculate package should be mentioned as a dependency for step. ]

Turns out the qalc package shouldnt contain the data files, but the library should. (e.g. grep the library source for the data files in question).

Also note Mandriva's bug on this https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=36944

This bug was fixed in the package libqalculate - 0.9.6-4ubuntu2

---------------
libqalculate (0.9.6-4ubuntu2) lucid; urgency=low

  * LP: #419498 and Mandriva bug: #36944 indicate that the data files should
    not be installed in the qalc packge, but along the library itself. Grepping
    the library source supports this theory. Hence moving the data files.
    + The lib package now replaces qalc << this version
