if the file was installed using an RPM (RH is a package system so you 
should be using RPM's ;->) yu can use rpm -ql evolution. This will give 
you a LONG list of files. I usually look for /usr/bin or /usr/share or 
/etc/ (this is not a complete list as the excutables could be elsewhere) 
in the file list. The 'executable' file should be in one of these 
directories. Not the best method but it works for me.
