Just a few hours ago, Saurik launched an updated version of Cydia Installer (version 1.1.17) with official iOS 8.3 support.
Saurik has quickly followed up with yet another Cydia Installer update, dubbed version 1.1.18, which he claims via Twitter fixes some bugs. More specifically, it keeps Springboard from locking up when the user attempts to kill Cydia from the App Switcher after they're done using it.
The update is recommended for everyone that is running the new TaiG 2.0.0 jailbreak for iOS 8.1.3-8.3, as it not only makes things more compatible, but will also present the fewest amount of bugs over using an outdated version of Cydia Installer.

Installing the update is easy. When you resfresh your Cydia sources after opening Cydia, you'll find a new popup prompting you to install an essential upgrade. You should go through with the upgrade to get the latest version of Cydia installed on your jailbroken iOS 8.3 device for stability purposes.
If you need help jailbreaking your iOS 8.1.3-8.3 device, you can follow our guide at this link. It does require a Windows machine, as well as an outdated version of iTunes to work. It's also noteworthy that the jailbreak works best on 32-bit machines due to driver issues on 64-bit machines; some people report progress on 64-bit machines, while the majority don't.
