It is a Gnome thing:

  http://gnome.eu.org/index.php/Evolution_Tray

although I'm not sure how much love it's getting these days.

If the OpenSUSE package is putting the files in the wrong place for the
version of Evolution, then that's a packaging issue and should be filed
as a bug with OpenSUSE so that they fix it.
