Could this be an issue with jdependency? They recently fixed it within version 2.7.0, shadow still uses 2.6.0

Yes, this issue is due to shadow using outdated jdependency. I authored this PR to jdependency and have been using a custom build of shadow with the updated jdependency for my Java 16 projects since then without issue.

Just to note for anyone waiting for the PR to be merged, in my case the issue was resolved by not minimizing in shadowJar.

I'm having this same issue and confirmed #681 fixed it.
