I seem to be suffering from the same issue. Let me know if I can provide more info.

A huge Thank you to Maren for getting me this far!

I'm on 14.04LTS Ubuntu.

Using Gtkmm 3.10 build
-- checking for module 'gdl-3.0>=3.6'
--   package 'gdl-3.0>=3.6' not found
-- checking for module 'gtkspell3-3.0'
--   package 'gtkspell3-3.0' not found
-- Boost version: 1.54.0
-- Found gettext + msgfmt to convert language files. Translation enabled
-- Could not locate the yaml library headers: xverb feature will be disabled
-- Generating header and sourcefiles from sp-marshal.list (Glib-Marshal)
-- sp-marshal.h unchanged
Old gettext version, not translating inkscape.desktop

After searching some more found that this is related to the use of GTK3, 
as discussed in this bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1193841

cmake is using these:

Using Gtkmm 3.10 build
Using GDL 3.6 or higher

However, it doesn't work.  So what do I have to do to build Inkscape 
these days on Ubuntu 14.04 lts?  It has been updated/upgraded to the 
latest package versions for this OS release.  Current versions:

g++ --version
g++-4.8.real (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.3) 4.8.4

and from dpkg --list
ii  libgtkmm-3.0-1:i386                       3.10.1-0ubuntu2            
                      i386         C++ wrappers for GTK+ (shared 
libraries)
#     gtkmm 2.4 is also present on this system
ii  libgdl-3-5:i386                           3.8.1-2ubuntu1             
                      i386         GNOME DevTool libraries

Thanks,
