Actually it is very easy to change svg colour in inkscape. Why don't you just change the colour.

Is this your first time with Inkscape, mate? There is a thing to be attentive to in the fill properties with transparency; make sure the fill has a 100% opacity because this is a regular issue in the program.
You'll have to check all layers and objects, because even one transparent layer can cause headaches =oP

Well Inkscape isn't without bugs but it's free so we just have to find work-arounds sometimes when using it. Frankly, it works much better in Linux than it does on Windows (as do many GNU projects).
Of course, there is always Adobe Illustrator ::)
