Interesting that the new version of aceso-iso (i.e. Nokia Link) comes with a brand-new package confpp as requirement.
The description field for this small package is: "This package will prepare the device for possible operator network updates.".
Also, the changelog reports of an initial version 0.0.1 dated 10 May 2013, and the 1.0.0 that has been released today, dated 22 May 2013.

Strange to say the least that they bundled the 3G fix with nokia link.

W000t!
Could this mean they "injected" various fixes into this update?

Question is, is Nokia Link actually updated in this update, or is it just a "trojan" to get confpp?..
[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??

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.

Just FWIW, I also got the Nokia Link update, and it claims to be version 0.1.13+0m8.

What exactly is this confpp, and should I worry about it?
