If you don't like the GUI, just remove gnome-packagekit and leave the framework in place. repoquery is helpful in figuring out the base dependencies. > There are some packages that are listed as dependencies by a large > number of others, sometimes for no apparent reason.

Common mistake. Evolution can be removed just fine. If you are talking about evolution-data-server, it is a generic calendar store that originated out of Evolution (hence the name) but does not have a dependency on Evolution. It is a very small package really.
