Again, that depends on the multi-language support of CPack.  However,
the GPL is only "official" in English, if I recall correctly.  I just
pointed to the official license file in the BibleTime bundle for the
source tree.


To be honest, I don't see offering translated licenses worth the trouble. First, as someone pointed out, GPL doesn't need to be accepted. Second, very few people read licenses at all. Third, of those who read most can probably read English.

We have this text in BibleTime Help->About dialog:

"BibleTime is released under the GPL licence.You can download and use (but not distribute) the program for personal, private, public or commercial purposes without restrictions.You can give away or distribute the program if you also distribute the corresponding source code.

The complete legally binding license is below."

That text is translatable. It should be enough to give something like this, if not the same, in the installer.

It could even be reasonable to write a common text for all frontends.
