Huh? What versions are reported by reportbug-ng here?

When did you install/upgrade glx-diversions?
Do you still have logs available from these events?

OK, that sounds right. The diversion is there, but for some reason,
you still have a file sitting around there that should have been moved aside.
And there the script from nvidia-installer-cleanup starts to complain
(even if that file is not from nvidia-installer, but that's intentional)
and blocks further installation, as you would end up with 2 or more 
libraries competing for being libGL.so.1 

Yould you please run (using the classical reportbug)

  reportbug -N 775491

to have it collect system info and send it to the bug? This should give
me lists of all the relevant things sitting around on your machine.
