Here's some info, I hope its useful:

% dpkg -L bsdmainutils | grep etc
/etc/default/bsdmainutils
/etc/cron.daily/bsdmainutils
% cat /etc/default/bsdmainutils
cat: /etc/default/bsdmainutils: No such file or directory
% cat /etc/cron.daily/bsdmainutils
cat: /etc/cron.daily/bsdmainutils: No such file or directory

% dpkg -L calendar | grep etc
/etc
/etc/calendar
/etc/calendar/default
/etc/cron.daily
/etc/cron.daily/calendar
/etc/default
/etc/default/calendar
% cat /etc/calendar/default
/* This is the system-wide default calendar file, used if calendar(1)
 * is invoked by a user without a ~/calendar or ~/.calendar/calendar file.
 * It may be edited or even deleted to reflect local policy.
 *
 * In the standard setup, we simply include the default calendar
 * definitions from /usr/share/calendar/calendar.all.  If you want
 * only some of those definitions, copy calendar.all to /etc/calendar
 * and edit it there.  That way, your changes will be kept next time
 * you upgrade.
 *
 * The search path for include files is:
 *   /etc/calendar
 *   /usr/share/calendar
 */
#include "calendar.all"
% cat /etc/cron.daily/calendar
#!/bin/sh
# /etc/cron.daily/calendar: BSD mainutils calendar daily maintenance script

. /etc/default/calendar

[ x$RUN_DAILY = xtrue ] || exit 0

[ -x /usr/sbin/sendmail ] || exit 0

if [ ! -x /usr/bin/cpp ]; then
  echo "The cpp package is needed to run calendar."
  exit 1
fi

/usr/bin/calendar -a
% cat /etc/default/calendar
# Uncomment the following line if you'd like all of your users'
