Also reported on forums that it is actually removed completely following "update"

If you via apt upgrade then its holding it back from the upgrade

On a fresh (updated) install of Mint 20.1 it installs without issue. Can you please run the command apt install evolution on the terminal and share the output here? That will likely provide clues as to what is going on. You can copy text from the terminal through its Edit menu; do Select All and then Copy.

Evolution is still installed on my system, I did not proceed with the update as others reported that Evolution was no longer accessible and could no longer be installed.

However, even with evolution currently installed, apt install is returning

`so it looks possibly like it was fixed overnight

it looks like the issue has been rectified overnight.

Evolution-data is now showing in the available updates, and its no longer prompting that evolution will be removed.
