Well, but what about deb-src? This grep command does not tell us the whole story.
BTW see also the comments below.

*apt-cache showsrc inkscape* E: You must provide some URIs to the source.list
Newer apt versions give a better error:
E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list
And here is a possible solution: https://askubuntu.com/questions/496549/error-you-must-put-some-source-uris-i...
As mentioned by others, after adding the 'deb-src' URIs this command will work:
apt-get build-depend inkscape
and will bring in all the build dependencies as per the debian package.
