We can't provide upgrade paths from packages that come from who knows where.

Besides, looking at that error, I assume that inkscape binary you got already contains the tutorials, so I don't think you should install this package at all

(inkscape-tutorials used to be inside the main inkscape binary package, but was split off to reduce the installed size of a normal installation).

Changed in inkscape (Ubuntu):
