IMO nothing. They both are designed to consolidate a semi solid bait around a delivery (and hook) system with intent that the water will break the bait apart (slowly for a dip bait and a lot quicker for a pack bait) and leave a sent stream and food particles to draw in your target. 

Where the argument come in is that a pack bait for carp that I am familiar with - loaded with a pack of dense, lets say corn with a binder, mix, is used to just hold the corn in a gob long enough to get it in the water and then to scatter corn around the area where your hair rig is. IE chumming, but you did not throw loose corn, you threw a consolidated gob out - not your fault it broke up - right? And it was on your hook to start with. Right?

Semantics in my mind. Its an argument about the size of the food particle that is breaking up and being scattered. I know people that use both dip baits and pack bait systems here in Utah. I see no difference or issue with either, but..........
