Probably related to #1627

[Marcono1234]

Can you please check if this issue still occurs with the latest Gson version? The way the module-info.class file is included in the Gson JAR was changed and should hopefully now cause fewer issues. Also make sure to use the latest build tools and plugins (e.g. Gradle).

I am going to close this because no answer has been provided. If you still experience this with the latest Gson version, feel free to comment here again with more details.
