cask/audit: skip livecheck requirement for :latest



  • audit_latest_with_livecheck forbids a livecheck block in casks using version :latest, so audit_livecheck_required could never be satisfied by them, e.g. font-baekmuk in Homebrew/homebrew-cask#295296.

Summary by CodeRabbit



  • Bug Fixes


    • Casks configured to track the latest version are no longer flagged by the required-livecheck audit. Other existing checks for new casks, official taps and shared audit issues remain unchanged, so the adjustment applies specifically to casks using the latest-version setting. This prevents an unnecessary audit issue for those casks.
