From our previous post we reported that Saurik has already started working on Cydia to make it compatible with iOS 8 and 8.1. Now, we would like report that Saurik has now released the updated version of Cydia compatible with iOS 8 and comes in the form of a .deb file.  The file is available from his website, you can now install it manually on your device.

Saurik mentioned:
I’ve given a new version of Cydia Installer in the form of a standard jailbreak bootstrap for inclusion in a new version of their jailbreak. I’ve also pushed the .deb of the iOS 8 version of Cydia to apt.saurik.com for manual download, but not yet to my repository. A lot of thanks goes out to limneos, who tested the new build for me, as I was at an airport (and now am frantically typing this message while they figure out how to retract the jetbridge from the plane I’m on that is about to take off).

Saurik has done a great job updating Cydia to work with iOS 8 and release it to the public in a short period of time. Please make sure that you update or restore first your device to iOS 8.1 via iTunes, as recommended by the Pangu Team before going jailbreak your device.

Note:
Most tweaks might not currently work with iOS 8 right now, hopefully developers update their tweaks as soon as possible to make it compatible with iOS 8. For sure The Pangu Team will provide an update for Pangu jailbreak tool and bundle Cydia with it in the very near future, for those who don’t feel like playing around with the file system can wait for that updated version to be released.
