Ok, I'm also running RH 7.2+updates on my laptop.  Heres what I did to
get Evolution installed (<1hr, including downloads):

  - downloaded *all* of the ximian binary rpm packages for 
    RH 7.2 from the mirror at:
      ftp://ftp.dulug.duke.edu/mirror/ximian/ximian-gnome/

  - did an rpm -Uvh on Evo and looked at the dependency list.
    I wasn't too hard to find the minimum subset of all the 
    ximian gnome packages that need to be installed to 
    support Evo given the list of unsatisfied dependencies

  - did an rpm -Uvh on that subset.  I got *one* conflict 
    related to the mozilla SSL libs that I got from a recent 
    rpm install from Moz's web site and I decided to do a 
    --force since those two packages seemed to provide 
    exactly the same library files

  - done.


If I were going to do it over, I'd build from source to avoid that one
conflict.  But I was in a  hurry that day...  ;-)

hth,
Ed
