[scribus] Upgrade of Windows' version

[Martin Kempf]

This is exactly the reason why I'm using scribus on windows only in 
portable version today, "installed" (copied) on hard disk, where 
1.3.3.14 is not changing, and the changes of actual version is automated 
by portableapps.com.
Associations are made with 1.3.3.14 manually, so it will keep like that 
til next installation of windows...
