Sorry if I'm being stupid, but I'm not aware of how to import *.txt
files.  The file type is not listed in the "File->Import..." or
"File->Open..>" dialogs.

Attempting to open/import a txt file by using "All Files" from either of
these dialogs just gives me a dialog with the message: "Failed to load
the requested file /home/alex/Documents/Text/text.txt"

On a separate note, Ubuntu already Suggests libsvg-perl, which adds
SVG.pm and fixes the problem in comment #2.  The ideal solution would be
to bump this up to "Recommends" status so that it is automatically
installed along with Inkscape.  However, this is not possible because
Inkscape is a "main" package (i.e. officially supported) while libsvg-
perl is a "universe" package (i.e. community supported).
