Since 470 drivers have been bouncing between different maintainers for so long, can someone please glimpse through these PKGBUILDs and confirm that everything is Ok?
I checked them based on this list and everything seems to look fine but my knowledge is still quite limited.

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=nvidia-470xx-settings
all 3 are now maintained by Sinyria so they should work again just fine.
Only that you missed one for the modules to get in:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-470xx-dkms
yay -Syu nvidia-470xx-dkms nvidia-470xx-utils nvidia-470xx-settings lib32-nvidia-470xx-utils
should do the trick.
You may want to add drm modesetting option to boot parameters in addition:

Just was wondering regarding this particular update since those packages were jumping from one maintainer to another for so long. And as someone here once mentioned - you have to be extra cautious when orphan package gets adopted.
That’s why I asked
