Cydia 1.1.17 is a bug fix release

Update Cydia to Support iOS 8.3

On iOS 8.3, Cydia would report that it "cannot identify your device" while trying to access your account. This was due to changes on iOS 8.3, and has been fixed.

Support file:/// Repository URLs

Recent versions of Cydia have rejected "local" repository URLs. This was due to an overly-limited filter on acceptable URLs. You can now again use local repositories.
