 Yes, minimum required version is 0.7.3, yet if compiled by hand you
 also need to specify you want to compile it with new D-Bus API. I'd
 recommend going with package manager versions already configured for
 that when possible.

NM 0.8.x can use wpa_supplicant 0.6, 0.7, or 0.8 using the old D-Bus API
(CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE_DBUS=y).

NM 0.9.x can use wpa_supplicant 0.7.3 (plus one commit from git) or 0.8
when you enable the new D-Bus API (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE_DBUS_NEW=y).

 HI, i looked for this project forum to post my question but i didnt find
 any and decided to post my problem here. Hope its the right place.
 
 I was using NM 0.8.4 just fine and then i went to planet kde and there is a
 post there that says NM 0.8 series is now deprecated for knetworkmanager
 and everybody is advised to start using version 0.9.

Yes, I wrote that blog post. Having to maintain only one version of 
Plasma NM make things easier for me :-) and, as I wrote, some bugs only happen 
with NM-0.8.
 
 I compiled this version from sources the same way i did for 0.8.4 and
 previous( the normal typical ./configure --prefix=/usr   make  make
 install) but this new version is now failing to work and google isnt helpuf
 in giving me assistance. Below is a log of the error msg i am getting when
 network manager start.
 
 Is this a known problem? is there a known/workable solution?

You should not use ifplugd and NM at the same time.
