evolution-data-server-common version 3.10.4-0ubuntu1.5

to totally remove evolution-data-server-common and/or requires removing also gdm.
But since:
The data server, called "Evolution Data Server" is responsible for managing
mail, calendar, addressbook, tasks and memo information.
why gdm depends on it?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

gdm doesnt depend on evolution-data-server, it depends on gnome-shell (which draws the login screen). evolution-data-server is a hard dependency of gnome-shell, so you can't remove it.

Changed in gdm (Ubuntu):
