As far as I'm aware the Ubuntu maintainers for Evolution haven't worked
on getting 3.16 into the latest version.  The last email exchange I had
with them implied it was some amount of work (I'm not really sure why
but mostly seemingly related to EDS) and no one had made the time to
look at it.

I don't know if this means it's hard to build, or just hard to package.

One hopes that they will find the time for this sometime before 15.10 is
released.
