Please do have a look at the two FAQs I referenced before: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.en.html https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0-faq.en.html In particular this last question of yours is addressed in https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#HeardOtherLicense Dependent packages are of cause NOT the copyright holders. Rather, the authors of a package (ie you, and whoever worked with you) are.
