Probably you need to tell fink's python3 about $HOME/lib/python 
where you installed the extension e.g. via PYTHONPATH env. I use 
altinstall.pth:

$ cat /opt/sw/lib/python3.8/site-packages/altinstall.pth
import os, site; site.addsitedir(os.path.expanduser('~/lib/python')); site.addsitedir('/usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages');

And of coourse you also need to tell fink's hg where to find 
evolve. I am not using evolve, so I don't know whether you also 
have to specify the path in hgrc when you're setting up the 
extension.
