Does that package import or depend on your package?

Hi,
I have a general question about Bioconductor package copyright. I have a Bioconductor package. I recently found most of the core codes of my package have been mostly copied and packaged into another package and published in Bioconductor. Although the new package says it?s a ?derivative? of my package. But does it violate the copyright under GPL-2? Thanks.
Best,
Ji-Ping Wang
