Thank you for the report - this is a known issue with the currently available Inkscape package for Macs, on Lion and later versions of OS X (including OS X 10.9 Mavericks), as tracked in
- Bug #819209 “Extensions do not work with Mac OS X Lion”
  <https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/819209>

Currently there are unfortunately no new packages available which include a known fix for this solution - please see also the apology to Mac users here:

Linking as duplicate to bug #819209. Comment #17 of that report has instructions how to apply a fix locally to Inkscape 0.48.2 for Mac OS X.

The app does actually contain all required python modules - the problem is that the available Inkscape package for Mac OS X is rather dated and at the time the package was created it was not possible to anticipate changes in future versions of OS X releases.
