Perhaps some bad packet was received, or maybe it crapped out in the middle
of downloading, then tried to resume another day after they updated the
version.  CRC would then mismatch.

There is a place where apt stores debs (full downloads & partials):
/var/cache/apt(/partial).  My recommendation is to go the var/cache/apt
directory that has evolution_1.0.2-ximian.1_i386.deb in it, rm the file,
then try to reinstall/redownload.

If it happens again, then data corruption is happening somewhere near your
end of the network or inside your machine.  Bad network card ?  Failing HD ?
