The Debian package*s* use the symbols files to determine the minimum
required version, and that show that SFCGAL 1.3.0 is not required yet:

 $ apt-cache show liblwgeom-2.2-5 | grep sfcgal
 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.14), libgeos-c1v5 (>= 3.5.0),
  libjson-c3 (>= 0.10), libproj9 (>= 4.9.0), libsfcgal1 (>= 1.1.0)

 $ apt-cache show postgresql-9.5-postgis-2.2 | grep sfcgal
 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.14), libgdal20 (>= 2.0.1),
  libgeos-c1v5 (>= 3.5.0), libjson-c3 (>= 0.11),
  liblwgeom-2.2-5 (>= 2.2.0), libpcre3, libproj9 (>= 4.9.0),
  libsfcgal1 (>= 1.2.0), libxml2 (>= 2.7.4), postgresql-9.5,
  postgresql-9.5-postgis-2.2-scripts

The biggest question for the SE issue is where did the user get its
packages from. It looks like a typical mess caused by using 3rd party
repositories.

Kind Regards,
