As debian/README.Debian states:

Load-path for functions from other packages
-------------------------------------------

In respsonse to #620452, the zsh-binary from Debian's zsh package started to
provide two entries to $fpath (the search path for loadable functions) for
other packages to drop function files into:

  - /usr/share/zsh/vendor-completions for functions that add functionality to
    zsh's function based completion system (compsys)

  - /usr/share/zsh/vendor-functions for all other functions

If you maintain another Debian package that wants to add functions to zsh's
function load-path, please use the those conventions when installing function
files.
