The package is akonadi-backend-odbc:
But, as you can see, the package is pretty much empty:
It contains no useful files, only the generic Debian packaging framework.
The Akonadi database page on the KDE TechBase describes the effort so far:
So it would appear that getting Virtuoso to work as a backend for Akonadi requires a fair amount of work.

It provides a common framework for applications to store and access mail, calendars, addressbooks, and other PIM data. . This package install everything what's needed for Akonadi to work with external SQL servers that implements ODBC interface. By default, the backend attempts to connect to the Virtuoso SQL server instance that's typically started by Nepomuk in KDE environment.

The Akonadi database page on the KDE TechBase describes the effort so far:
Virtuoso
Status: not working
Supported modes: External
Proof-of-concept work was done during Akademy 2010, up to the point where the database could be created successfully. Known issues:
* Some column names used by Akonadi are Virtuoso keywords
* Some of the first INSERT query fails with a signed vs. unsigned int mismatch/overflow.
Completion of Virtuoso support is considered non-trivial and probably requires a lot of work on the Akonadi side, the SQL dialect is too different from what we support so far.
