Since the other languages of the license are recognized as official, I
think it is sufficient to standardize on one language and to use other
translations as a legal reference if it ever mattered for international
jurisdiction (?).
Agreed. From a standpoint of "compliance with the license", shipping
what the upstream provides is fine. However, since an official English
version is available (as opposed to a translation), we should provide
that as a service to our user and contributor communities. For better
or worse, we are an English-language project.
For the sake of not having to remove a file from the upstream package
in the build process, I don't see an issue with providing the English
version _in addition to_ the language version used upstream.
