So, talking with people over at the Gnome team, this came out:

So, that set_option_context_parameter_string thing comes from Glib 2.56,
but you have this piece of glibmm at 2.54 according to your initial
post.
Indeed it seems that your system had a broken update in the past, with
way too many old packages still laying around.  I think you shold take
your time to fix it up and properly fully upgrade your system to
whatever distribution you are targetting.  Whilst this bug can be fixed,
there is not that much support around for such half-upgraded systems.

The bug actually lies in libglibmm-2.4-1v5 which is not propagating the
proper versioned dependency, so I'm reassigning this bug to them.  After
that inkscape will need a rebuild to pick it up, whever it will be.
