+qcad-data and qcad-doc have been removed from Debian:

+The QCad documentation, patterns, and fonts are non-free. The package is
+ functional without documentation, but loses appeal without fonts
+ or patterns. The LibreCAD package has free (GPL2) fonts and is working
+ on free documentation.

+Also, QCad will be removed from Debian before wheezy:

+QCad depends on qt3 libraries, which are no longer maintained in Debian.
+ QCad will be superseded by LibreCAD ("librecad" in Debian), the qt4
+ community fork of QCad
+
+At that point, qcad will become a transitional package for librecad, the qt4
+ community fork of QCad.
