You could try to pin the package version (see e.g. https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/162700/apt-pinning-package-versions). AFAIK, this should be fixed with recent Ubuntu/Debian distro versions, so maybe also consider updating to those.

As far as I can tell this should be a standard USB-connected webcam. Those should normally be supported out of the box, so maybe you can try another application? Unfortunately,...

There should be an option in the UEFI menu for enabling Secure boot with "Microsoft and 3rd party keys", you need to select that.
