I still can't find inkscape-common in that website.  Also, in that
website it just links to the official package that is in the repository
that you could already grab with a simple `apt install inkscape`, so I
don't understand what are you doing…

Anyhow, installing packages from unofficial sources is not supported and
clearly I won't give support in this bug tracker; you might try in some
user support forum.   That said, I reckon you should just `apt purge
inkscape-common && apt install inkscape` and it should just work,
provided you don't have some third party repository that might mess with
it.
