Have you tried the command to install build dependencies for evolution:
apt-get build-dep evolution
That usually gets the basic libraries installed. The others you might
need to build manually into your $PREFIX build directory structure.
Also, you might consider building in a different directory than the 
source directories like:
$PREFIX/local/build
$PREFIX/local/src
