It looks like you're only pulling packages from RHEL 5.2 Server. Evolution itself is only in RHEL 5.2 Client, but it's base libraries are included in Server. I think you just need to grab the newer Evolution RPMs from Client.
Actually 5.2 Server has Evolution (in "optional productivity apps" channel), but only for i386 & x86_64 archs. Interesting: ---> Package evolution.i386 0:2.8.0-40.el5_1.1 set to be updated Somehow yum wants to install old evolution (5.2 contains evo 2.12) and can't find dependencies for it. Maybe you have some old channel subscribed, or channel's misconfiguration...
It seems the channel is misconfigured. I am subscribed to the RHEL Optional Productivity Apps (v. 5 for 32-bit x86) Beta channel but there is no content! Evo 2.8 is still in the RHEL Optional Productivity Apps (v. 5 for 32-bit x86) channel but 2.12 is not yet in the beta channel. Should this be reassigned to the RHN folks?
It does sound like an RHN problem.
Reassigning this to Red Hat Network.
sending off to release engineering
