This is not a packaging problem but a configuration problem, unfortunately lm_sensors is something which just works when installed. You can fix this by editing /etc/sensors3.conf and then adding a applesmc entry with the correct labels for each temp. as for what the correct labels are, well that is always an interesting question.
