Not running GNOME 3 doesn't change the fact that Gtk also changed from 
2 to 3, and several other dependencies.   Numerous distributions package
that change poorly [or did, time moves on].

GNOME 3.8.1, and Evolution, on openSUSE 3.8.1 is extremely stable.  But
have been numerous issues tracked down on other distributions that 
relate to Gtk versions and themes.
