just for the record: 

How may happen that sudo apt-get -s build-dep evolution returns 

Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig
Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut       Statusinformationen werden
eingelesen... Fertig E: Quellpaket für evolution kann nicht gefunden
werden

Translation might be E: source package for evolution can not be found ??

but:
apt-cache showpkg evolution
Package: evolution
Versions: 
3.2.3-0ubuntu6
(/var/lib/apt/lists/de.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise_main_binary-amd64_Packages) 
(/var/lib/dpkg/status)
