The newest evolution package is only available on RH because you don't
need it.  Just use the Mandrake ones.

Alternatively leave your system as it is if it works.  db3 will not
access db2 files but my guess is that you probably have the libraries
somewhere if it is working.  rpm shouldn't let you install without
--nodeps if you don't have the needed libs.
