This, in turn, links to a library only provided in the evolution package, so evolution gets pulled in.
It would probably be a good idea to split the plugins package somewhat; there are a lot of plugins there, and some have non-trivial dependencies (such as the evolution plugin). Sadly, this will require some upstream work in GNOME Do. Due to the way mono.addins is used[1], it's not feasible[2] to provide split packages at this time.
