Not really.

 
 upower is currently broken on at least tree machines I have. ACPI info for 
 battery is there, acpi -V works correctly
 but upower fails with :
 
  upower --monitor-detail
 
 (upower:7148): libupower-glib-WARNING **: Couldn't enumerate devices: Launch 
 helper exited with unknown return code 127
 
 (upower:7148): UPower-WARNING **: failed to enumerate: Launch helper exited 
 with unknown return code 127
 
 Conseqaunetly the battery monitor applet reports incorrect information on 
 battery state and kde is unable 
 to preventively shutdown properly the laptop = risk of data lost.


Can you run (as root)
# /usr/lib/upower/upowerd -v

If so, what is the output

Doesn't look like a upower problem though, but a broken D-Bus installation.
Is the dbus system daemon running?
What's the output of
# ps aux | grep dbus-daemon | grep system

Please also post the output of the following three commands:
# getent group messagebus
# getent passwd messagebus
# ls -al /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper

Have you checked your system with debsums?

 Sure see below

 are you kidding? You have seen kde running withoutr dbus?

 Blabla. No change in the dbus area noting just the package produced by
 upower and voila it works. So the fi has to be in your package...

You haven't provided any useful information so far which would help
diagnose this problem, instead you are just being rude.
If you can't provide more information, I'm forced to simply close this bug.

I shown you that upower does not work via a command line. You in turn 
have failed to consider the bug being in your package or that it may 
cause data lost on laptop because battery monitor (the default kde 
applet to monitor laptop battery depends on it)

I know how to repoen it. And will do

That command tries to see if dbus is working. Not waste time because 
reinstalling without dbus running kde ouputs lots of ertor/alram and

Again you are searching problem with dbus but dbus is working fine and 
reinstalling git version of the package compiled reusing 0.9.20 debian 
directory works fine. So do not search a problem outside your packages. 
It may just be a compatibility problem between some experimental 
packages I have on my system and upower. I did not try just rebuilding 
as I saw problem fixed in upower git chnagelog...

I have the same problem on several system and it occurred recently. I 
just did not know that battery monitor was using upower so wasted some 
time tryiong to understand what was wrong.

Because you are hunting the bug where it is not.
