All— The recent change for Paraguay (staying on -03 and no longer falling
back to -04 from 2025-03-22 24:00) was made to our development repository
in the following commits dated 2024-10-05 and 2024-10-15:
https://github.com/eggert/tz/commit/636e6f983bca35e6f945e092ffdc315ae3e5dd9e
https://github.com/eggert/tz/commit/486e1e890e68d52f9236b2b354484463f57ec692

These changes were included in version 2025a of tzdata, released
2025-01-16, and remain available in version 2025b released this past
weekend.

Unfortunately, downstream maintainers can often be slow to pick up on these
changes.  We suggest working with the maintainers of these systems to pick
up and distribute our latest release to your users.
