So far, all well.
I followed the rebuild-detector-advice and got the following
foreign archalien-git
foreign ds4drv
extra libpurple
foreign mps-youtube-git
extra pidgin
foreign puddletag-qt5-git
foreign pyradio-git
foreign python-pgzero
foreign searx
foreign svtplay-dl
I think that means there are at least two packages in the extra-repos needing rebuilding.
The other ones I know I have to take on.
File conflicts. Wine-mono was already installed and the upgrade aborted.
Update without any noticed problem so far.
Can I uninstall the mhwd-nivida-ABCxx packages?
Only post-update action I had to take was to handle /etc/systemd/homed.conf.pacnew, which had a cosmetic change, for me. A smooth update otherwise.
Edit: Also noticed that unlike the rest of the Nvidia packages, the update process didn’t replace nvidia-455xx-utils with nvidia-utils.
But this was easily resolved, by explicitly trying to install the latter. Pacman asked me whether I want to replace the older package with this one, replied y, and the replacement was done.

Removed wine-mono, and the old nvidia and virtalbox kernel modules, and then the upgrade proceeded. Reinstalled wine-mono.

Solution:
Uninstall linux57-nvidia-430xx lib32-nvidia-430xx-utils
redo the update process,

Type “y” for this step, leave other steps default.
Not crutial but I would recommend to merge this since there are new settings (even if still only as comment).

OK It seems there is some issue in the update process for Nvidia.
I updated and rebooted Pastebin.com - Potentially offensive content ahead!, and Nvidia is working, BUT it did not replace the nvidia455 previous drivers correctly. It replaced only the lib32-nvidia-455xx-utils and kept the original nvidia-455xx-utils. When I check in Hardware configuration, no Nvidia driver is marked as installed, and I can not install video-nvidia as it says it conflicts with the old driver.

I manually removed nvidia-455xx-utils then I could proceed to install video-nvidia it downloaded new drivers and kernel packages. Still have this error though Warning: config '/var/lib/mhwd/local/pci/video-nvidia-455xx/MHWDCONFIG' is invalid! despite all the mhwd orphans removed with the old driver

Anyway, doing that fixed the video-nvidia original issue and now it is marked with the proper new packages installed.

on my testing machine i got issues since the last update with lightdm in the lockscreen.
it’s stucking on “redirect to login screen”, even the mouse freezes.
for me, restarting lightdm helps via tty to work around the problem (sudo systemctl restart lightdm)
my .xsession-errors doesn’t provide much info on this, does anybody here has idea where it could be coming from?
xfsettingsd: Another instance took over. Leaving…

system has multiple monitors and is running an amd graphics card, while nvidia drivers are still installed. i’ve tried to switch and safe/reload the active display but that doesn’t seem to solve anything.
One ReBuild:

232 packages to update, 0 to rebuild. Good job

removes linux59-nvidia and all the mhwd stuff. I guess this is not expected.
I did the exact same thing but I didn’t get the warning
config '/var/lib/mhwd/local/pci/video-nvidia-455xx/MHWDCONFIG' is invalid!
Not sure why you got that warning and I didn’t.
For me it was one of the first responses after starting the driver install. The installation worked all the same. Went and deleted the same folder afterwards.
