Yes, I've run Evo under KDE (!) and Enlightenment (curren DE) with no problems. The install just brings in 
the needed dependencies (e.g., gnome keyring under KDE) as mentioned. I think, but would love to hear 
clarification, the issue is with versions of Gnome, such that trying to install Evo 3.12/3.14 with a much 
earlier version of Gnome or a Gnome-based DE (e.g., Unity running in Ubuntu 12.04) could cause problems.

As an off-topic aside, the soon-to-be-released XFCE 4.12 looks like a really nice set of incremental advances 
in a very solid DE.
