Changes should go after the --- mark, i.e...

However, there's a bigger problem with your series: it's not bisectable.

If I apply just PATCH 1/3, then zlib-ng is available, but will
conflict/overwrite files installs by zlib. Not good.

If I apply just PATCH 1/3 and PATCH 2/3, then all packages that use
zlib are broken because it's now called libzlib.

So basically, you need to squash PATCH 2/3 and 3/3 into a single patch,
and make that the first patch of the series (of course removing the
zlib-ng support in it).

And then as a second patch, introduce the zlib-ng package, as a new
provider for zlib.

Thanks!

Thomas
