If I don't recall wrong, color management in Scribus does not work
well for imported PDF files (a least not if you import as native PDF,
maybe it works if you rasterize, but then you might as well export a
JPEG, PNG or TIFF from Inkscape and import into an image frame).

And since you export from Inkscape, wouldn't you already know the
dimensions in Inkscape? If I don't recall wrong, the export dialog in
Inkscape shows the dimensions so it would be easy to take note of them
when exporting.
