When you installed the devel repo, it probably updated libnotify and
libgnutls when it updated evolution. I only have the core, extras, and
livna repos available with libnotify-0.3.0 and gnutls-1.2.10, which have
both of your missing libraries. Try getting rid of the devel repo first
and then uninstalling libnotify and gnutls with yum, no matter what the
deps are, and then re-installing everything. I don't know if gnome is
one of the dependencies, so I would try to do it from the command line
('/sibn/init 3' as root). Hope this helps!
