I did not notice it. There are no sources on Github, just binaries
They take some effort to miss: <https://github.com/bmatzelle/gow/releases/tag/v0.8.0>.
Is there any evidence that the source doesn't correspond to the binaries, e.g., through patching or non-trivial build scripting?
there is Gow license which is contradictory to GPL license making it
This is the MIT (Expat) licence. It is not contradictory to the GPL.
unclear that it is majority GNU programs and GPL license:
It is commonplace for software distributions to contain multiple compatible licences. Majority doesn't matter.
https://github.com/bmatzelle/gow/blob/master/licenses/Gow-License.txt
Why not link to <https://github.com/bmatzelle/gow/blob/master/licenses/GPL-License.txt> or the directory index?
If one copy of the GPL is unclear, the sources contain 15 more to clarify matters. What upstream could do (if they're even still alive) is add a copy of the GPLv3 for convenience.
Best to avoid clearly bogus claims of ‘GPL violation’ when asking. Kind regards, T G-R
