That has nothing to do with Evolution, the dependency is the opposite.
Please reassign to the package removed.

Anyway, I think the concerned package will be a meta-package which you
are free to remove if you dont want it. GNOME include a mail reader
which is Evolution, so it brings it with it, and yes the “GNOME” package
then requires Evolution. But other than that, you can remove it without
problem.
