Justin,

Launch the "Software & Updates" application in Ubuntu, from there
check the "Source code" checkbox and then close it and after that the
commands "apt-get update" and "apt-get build-dep inkscape-devel". It
needs the Source repositories enabled to determine the dependencies,
after you have them installed you can disable the "Source code"
checkbox again if you want (if you don't normally get source code that
way or fulfill dependencies it just slows down checking for updates).

Cheers,
Josh
