it's the license header in the wrapper/php/dmtx_write.c source file, it
contains

...
 * libdmtx-php is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
 * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
 * the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
 * (at your option) any later version.
...

and it makes the php module GPLv2+ licensed (+ means the "or any later
version")
