You need a backslash in front of the *, otherwise the shell will try
to expand it.  Alternatively, you can quote the string and skip the
backslash.

Either of the following work fine:

    yum --exclude "evolution*" update
    yum --exclude evolution\* update

They do, but you have errors in the commands you've tried.  Syntax
matters. :)
