@Alex - this doesn't seem to work yet as expected: from the build log of 14.10:

checking for LIBWPG03... yes
checking for LIBVISIO01... no
checking for LIBVISIO00... no
checking for LIBCDR01... no
checking for LIBCDR00... no

Another user on Ubuntu 14.10 reported successful detection of libcdr and libvisio (for local trunk build) after installing the packages libicu-devtools and libicu-dev: possibly this is related - since after having those packages installed, Inkscape's configure detected the requirements for cdr and visio support as expected. The user's original config.log unfortunately was overwritten, and personally I don't have a VM with 14.10 at hand to verify what is causing the failure to detect libcdr-0.1 and libvisio-0.1 as expected.
