I very much doubt you will be able to compile Evolution 3.18 on a
system that is based on Gnome 3.10 - at the very least you will need
Gnome 3.16.

In any case, I'm not an Ubuntu person, so I can't help much with that
environment.  Look in the list archives though since I seem to remember
a number of threads about getting recent versions of Evolution onto
Ubuntu and possibly some about how to compile it (it's not really
trivial).
