Hello ! This is my first message here. Sorry of it's not the appropriate place to post.
While I cannot help with your installation problem, I'd like to welcome you as the author of fantastic filters, some of which I already included, with author's permission, into our share/filters/filters.svg so they are available in submenus of Extensions/Filters. There are much more here:
http://openclipart.org/media/people/ivan_louette
Anyone can download the SVGs from that page and put them into your ~/.config/Inkscape/filters to make these filters callable from Extensions/Filters/Personal. Definitely all of them are "too much" to be included into Inkscape distribution, but we need to sort through them and pick the most useful examples, say 2-3 from each category.
If anyone feels like helping with this, what you need to do is just move the corresponding <filter> element from source SVG into Inkscape's share/filters/filters.svg, and add/edit some metadata attributes, for example:
<filter inkscape:label="Glossy jelly" inkscape:menu="Bevels" inkscape:menu-tooltip="Bulging, glossy jelly covering" ...
