It's yelp which is looking for libxul19, not evince directly. And yelp won't work with www/libxul last I heard. Personally, I'm just living without yelp right now. I think others are too. The quick-and-dirty hack someone just mentioned on another thread is to let yelp install with libxul19, then delete libxul19. Yelp won't work, but it will be installed and other programs that want it will go ahead and install happily. That sounds like it should work; what I did (before I heard that advice) was to change other ports to not try to use yelp at all. Good luck.
