What's wrong with the app label?
The Fork label's appNewVersion is returning empty, causing version comparison to fail and reporting "Latest version not specified."
Root cause:
The Fork Sparkle feed at https://git-fork.com/update/feed.xml uses sparkle:version instead of sparkle:shortVersionString for version information in the enclosure elements.
