The first Debian upload was:

qbs (1.2.2+dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Initial release (closes: #745095).

As of today, a little more than 4 years, it has only two users (reverse 
dependencies): qt creator and dewall.

Considering yesterday's announce and the fact that qt creator ships a bundled 
copy the only package stopping us from removing qbs from the archive is 
dewall, so I don't think it will stay in the archive for much longer.
