Bug Description
Unless I'm missing something, the method descriptionText in SUUpdateAlert.m incorrectly constructs the version string for applications built with Apple generic versioning. It only shows CFBundleShortVe
For example, if an app is at version 1.0 (1) and the newest available version is 1.0 (2) (which I set in the appcast as sparkle:version="2" sparkle:
MyApp 1.0 (2) is now available--you have 1.0 (1).
Instead, it shows:
MyApp 1.0 (2) is now available--you have 1.0.
which is a little amibguous.

Sparkle will append the CFBundleVersion in parentheses as you request, but only if the short version strings are the same, as they should be in this case. You have "1.0" as the short version string of version 1 and "1.0 (2)" as the short version string of version 2, which is inconsistent. Set the sparkle:
