I suspect the immediate problem is the extra+outdated GDAL version in
/usr/local/. It would be strange if a newer version of the GDAL ubuntu
package were depending on an older version of GEOS, right?

In addition, I don't see GEOS 3.1.1 available in any of the recent
ubuntu versions, so suspect the /usr/local/ custom installed version
is to blame for the bulk of the trouble.

You can use "ldd" on the libraries found with:

$ locate libgdal | grep '\.so'

to verify which one(s) are looking for libgeos 3.1.1.

e.g.
$ ldd /usr/lib/libgdal.so.1 | grep geos
$ ldd /usr/lib/grass64/lib/libgdal.so | grep geos
