I upgrade my system with
$ yay -Syu
This time I have got the following error
installing nvidia-390xx-utils (390.138-3) breaks dependency 'nvidia-390xx-utils=390.132' required by nvidia-390xx
There is four updating packages from AUR.
4 aur/libxnvctrl-390xx 390.132-2 -> 390.138-1
3 aur/nvidia-390xx 390.132-38 -> 390.138-3
2 aur/nvidia-390xx-settings 390.132-2 -> 390.138-1
1 aur/nvidia-390xx-utils 390.132-2 -> 390.138-3
How can I solve this issue?

It's yay's fault. It doesn't understand, that the right dependency will be i stalled later. Learn to use the AUR before you rely on crutches like yay.
Do it manually and everything will be fine.

i don't think it's only yay fault (i don't use yay btw).
first the nvidia-390xx-dkms AUR package (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-390xx-dkms/) points to an empty git:
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/nvidia-390xx-dkms
is an empty git repository
I don't know if the package changed hands but this was the repository i originally downloaded and installed, and i had no problems until the last update.
now you have to use:
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/nvidia-390xx
but first you have to update at least nvidia-390xx-utils (i had to also update lib32-nvidia-390xx-utils) before updating the driver.

OP didn't use the DKMS package. The DKMS package now seems to be part of nvidia-390xx. Those problems are unrelated. Manually solving the dependencies (and not using yay this time) is still the way to go.

Thanks you for the advice. Manual installation works.

Interesting ... in my case the git repository mentioned by quimkaos (git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/nvidia-390xx) returns an error upon running makepkg:
Missing dependencies:
-> nvidia-390xx-utils=390.138
==> ERROR: Could not resolve all dependencies.

Which is entirely expected and the same solution as presented in this thread, install nvidia-390xx-utils first if you do it manually.
