[edit] The .iso image is dated the 2013-05-24. But the nokia_link installer inside the iso is date 2012-01-17. After installing (in Wine :P) the About says v1.2.408.3448, DPEngine 2.4.17.14540, 2011 Nokia. I don't know what the "previous" version was, but this doesn't look new to me.

Also, the installer is 9.7MiB, whereas the iso is 36.3MiB. What's hiding in that file??
I downloaded both versions 0.1.12 and 0.1.13, opened the deb packages and mounted on my linux machine both files /usr/share/aceso/aceso.iso (on different mountpoints, of course) and the Nokia_Link.exe contained there are *exactly* the same, compared their md5 checksum.

So the 'new' version is just an excuse to install confpp.
Sad that they used a 33MB mostly useless package to induce people to install a 5KB additional update.
