You don't need to install that package at all, see

"Just like the Liberation fonts are metrically-compatible with Times
New Roman (Liberation Serif), Arial (Liberation Sans), and Courier
(Liberation Mono), the Carlito and Caladea fonts (both now provided
with LO) are metrically-compatible with Calibri and Cambria
respectively. This means that if you use Carlito instead of Calibri,
your document will have the same layout as if you used Calibri." (via
