Looks like we crossed messages.  I think it maybe a good idea to stick with inkscape +x11 as it works fine and inkscape
+quartz really has no advantage unless you want to run everything you can +quartz and don't mind uninstalling
conflicting +x11 ports.

If these are the only +quartz ports installed there's probably not much to do.  Doesn't look like you really did much
in the way of installing the +quartz dependencies for inkscape.  cairo and pango are correct as is and tk +quartz may be
required by something else although it's default variant is +x11. But it doesn't depend on gtk2 so it shouldn't conflict.

inkscape +x11 may work as is.  If not, uninstall all existing inkscape installations and then re-install inkscape +x11.
But resync your ports tree first if you haven't in the last day or so since there have been some minor changes.  This
will avoid any unnecessary rebuilds.

sudo port selfupdate
sudo port uninstall inkscape and installed
sudo port install inkscape +x11
