Hi,

this -> https://github.com/trifectatechfoundation/bzip2-rs/blob/master/bzip2-sys/Cargo.toml#L7C2-L7C27

Uses a / in its licence field. / is according to the SPDX Specification not a valid Expression.
https://spdx.github.io/spdx-spec/v3.0.1/annexes/spdx-license-expressions/

As it's not a valid expression, tools (like GitLabs Dependency List and Licence Management) can only either assume what / means or mark the Licence expression as Unknown.

In the case that OR is meant by the / in the bzip2-sys crate, it would be cool if this could be corrected to be a valid SPDX expression

PS: if I should open a quick PR to change it, just tell me.
