There is not enough information, like which PPA your using and which
versions of the gdal & grass packages are being used.

Something is pulling in the old geos from Ubuntu instead of the newer
package in the PPA.

Since the dependency chain of libgdal-grass is quite limited, it's most
likely either gdal or grass.

Inspect the dependencies of the gdal & grass packages that libgdal-grass
requires to build to see if they all use the new geos. If they do, it
may be spatialite (one of libgdal dependencies) that pulls in the old geos.

Kind Regards,
