Description

I tried to update AltStore from AltServer to fix the "No Provisioning Profile" bug, going from 1.5 to 2.0b1, but 2.0b1 only ever shows a blank screen:

At first install, it asked for local network and notification permissions, but has displayed nothing else since. Please display some diagnostic information about initialization tasks as they're happening.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the blank screen after installing AltStore 2.0b1 through AltServer and inspect the initialization flow, since the issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Done should mean that initialization progress or diagnostic information is displayed instead of an unexplained blank screen.
