Unless you really want all of Ximian Gnome, you are better off installing the version of Evolution that came with 8.1 (0.12, I think), or (better yet) install the 0.99rc1 from Cooker. I've been running it for a while now, and it is much more stable on my system than the version that came on the CDs.

I wouldn't say it is an easy way, as far as I know it is the only way to use the RPMs, that is, you download each of the dependencies and install them. When they result in dependencies you download and install those. You keep doing that until you stop getting dependencies and then you work your way back up the chain installing all the rpms that failed previously. It takes some time but all the rpms are there at the Evolution site so it is mostly just tedium. The latest candidate is much more stable than the version that shipped with Mandrake 8.1.
