for the record:The "space-in-std-shortname-in-dep5-copyright" tag seems just plain wrong as I didn't find anything to support that claim in https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/
Both Lintian & licenserecon do not emit error/warning with "License: Expat or Unlicense" ; but that is the only form that works. "License: Expat and/or Unlicense" will make Lintian unhappy.
