Yes, you need the POTFILES.in that I checked into SVN this morning :-/
We're thinking about the same things, I set up a launchpad team in order to have a PPA for building Inkscape. It is "inkscape.testers", but the reason for it to exist is this:
https://launchpad.net/~inkscape.testers/+archive
I think I finally have a package that is all happy. If you add those lines to your apt-sources System->Administration->Software Sources, Third Party Sources tab. Then you'll get your Inkscape upgraded to pre0. You'll also get pre1, etc. when they get added to the PPA.
Can someone do this same thing for RPM based distros? I thought OpenSuSE had a system like a PPA a while ago, but I'm not familiar with it.
