Answer 1

dpkg-divert --list | grep libGL.so.1

This should display either /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGL.so.1.distrib or /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGL.so.1. According to the output it should be the first one. Then, execute the following

sudo dpkg-divert --rename --remove --divert "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGL.so.1.distrib"

After which, you can try reinstalling your driver
