Just a heads up to those who may still be on 15.3 and using nvidia proprietary drivers installed through YaST/zypper.
zypper/YaST cannot resolve dependency to kernel-default-devel = 5.3.18-57 although the appropriate package is available.
It is necessary to manually install:
kernel-default-devel-5.3.18-57.3.x86_64.rpm
kernel-devel-5.3.18-57.3.noarch.rpm
before updating the nvidia driver.
See this bug report: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202116
I’m getting a similar message trying to do an update on tumbleweed.

Solution 1: deinstallation of nvidia-gfxG05-kmp-default-470.129.06_k5.18.11_1-57.1.x86_64
Solution 2: keep obsolete nvidia-gfxG05-kmp-default-470.129.06_k5.18.11_1-57.1.x86_64
Solution 3: break nvidia-gfxG05-kmp-default-470.141.03_k5.18.12_1-53.4.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies

Guess I have to wait a bit longer?
Whilst this issue is being addressed I’ve no idea when a fix will be available.
You could download the two required packages:
http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/x86_64/kernel-default-devel-5.18.12-1.1.x86_64.rpm
http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/noarch/kernel-devel-5.18.12-1.1.noarch.rpm
manually install them and then run the nvidia update.
We are already at kernel-default-5.18.15-1.1.x86_64 in Tumbleweed…
That is not the issue. Nvidia requires the two (older) packages listed in post #3 to to fix boo#1201936
See the bug report I initially provided: 1202116 – kernel-default-devel = 5.3.18-57 missing in repo meta data of Leap 15.3 (was: nvidia update 470.129.06 => 470.141.03 fails)
OK … Humble pie time, I apologise, being mistaken with regard to this issue on Tumbleweed. Please ignore my comments at posts #3 and #5. Sorry for the misinformation and noise.
Bug report raised: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202192 which you may wish to follow.
Thanks for raising that. This morning’s tumbleweed ‘zypper dup’ is now running.
