Never tried PKGBackup (if it's what I think it is, I may have used it years ago). Instead I've used xBackup, on both my iPad and my iPhone when I last upgraded. It worked like a charm, and it was well worth the money (cheaper than PKGBackup, too). Just backed all my Cydia apps to the web, upgraded via Apple. Apple upgraded my apps, contacts and photos and xBackup restored all my Cydia apps. Easy Peasy!
