Research direction
The file to change is patterns/hyph-sk.tex; only the % licence: lines at the top need updating, from GPL-2.0-or-later to MIT with the upstream URL. Compare against upstream's version of that header first, then optionally run tests/generate.rs to confirm tries/sk.bin stays byte-identical. Done when the header matches upstream and the generated trie is unchanged.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
The copy of hyph-sk.tex in patterns/ still states GPL-2.0-or-later in its % licence: header. Upstream tex-hyphen changed the licence of the Slovak patterns to MIT in commit 645e87e (2026-02-18, "Changed licence of the Slovak patterns to MIT."; CTAN release 2026.02.21: "Updated licence of Slovak patterns to MIT"), and TeX Live 2026 ships that file.
The pattern data is identical — a diff of the two files shows only the % licence: lines (name: GPL / version: 2 / or_later: true / url: … → name: MIT / url: …). Rebuilding the trie from either file with tests/generate.rs gives a byte-identical tries/sk.bin (13,069 bytes), so updating the header from upstream would not change the shipped data, only the licence information downstream users see when they audit the crate.
