I’m looking at it. I’m able to reproduce with fresh install of daily cosmic image.
Ok, after some investigation and discussion on IRC it turns out the problem (and fix) are known but for some reason the fix hasn’t landed in archives (nor the cosmic image) yet - see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-meta/+bug/1772844

i dont think reporting the bug status weekly is of much help here …
as long as the ubuntu-meta status in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-meta/+bug/1772844 does not change it will simply not be fixed…
(a seed change needs a subsequent re-generation of -meta and an upload, that simply didnt happen yet and the “Confirmed” bug status reflects that… i also doubt the people caring for that package read this forum so they will not notice the weekly pings)
On a Bionic system, gnome-calculator fails to start:

But it seems to be related to the Apparmor confinement:

This was fixed for me with snapd:
$ snap version
snap 2.36.2
snapd 2.36.2
series 16
ubuntu 18.04
kernel 4.15.0-43-generic
And gnome-calculator 3.30.1:
$ snap info gnome-calculator
name: gnome-calculator
summary: GNOME Calculator
publisher: Canonical✓
license: unset
description: |
GNOME Calculator is an application that solves mathematical equations.
Though it at first appears to be a simple calculator with only basic
arithmetic operations, you can switch into Advanced, Financial, or
Programming mode to find a surprising set of capabilities.
The Advanced calculator supports many operations, including:
logarithms, factorials, trigonometric and hyperbolic functions,
modulus division, complex numbers, random number generation, prime
factorization and unit conversions.
Financial mode supports several computations, including periodic interest
rate, present and future value, double declining and straight line
depreciation, and many others.
Programming mode supports conversion between common bases (binary, octal,
decimal, and hexadecimal), boolean algebra, one’s and two’s complementation,
character to character code conversion, and more.
