those symbols are very simple, drawing them can be a very good project
for someone wanting to learn how to draw in Inkscape.
when i started drawing my clipart collection, the first gallery was the
one with arrows and the second with flowchart symbols. i used Dia as a
reference for what flowchart symbols to include
the work can be speed'ed-up by saving the shapes from Dia as SVG and
adjust them in Inkscape as needed, but for this we probably need
permission from the original authors, so probably is not worth the effort
