OK, you have got the updated evolution-data-server package that is
causing everyone problems. You've managed to get it installed because
you don't currently have anything installed that depends on the old
version of evolution-data-server.

Try this:
# rpm -Uvh --oldpackage
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/5/i386/evolution-data-server-1.6.1-1.fc5.2.i386.rpm
# yum install gnome-panel

If that works, you'll then be in the same boat as the rest of us...

Not in this case. The evolution-data-server package contains some of the
evolution libraries also used by packages other than evolution;
splitting it out like this enables the other packages to be installed
without having to install evolution itself.
