You cant' do this. 0.99 has a different D-Bus API than 0.9. All other software in Ubuntu 14.04 expects the upower 0.9 API, not the 1.0 one. > ./configure: line 3138: syntax error near unexpected token `0.9.9' > ./configure: line 3138: `GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_CHECK(0.9.9)' You probably don't have the build dependencies installed, in particular libgirepository1.0-dev and gobject-introspection. You need "apt-get build-dep upower". But again, don't do that.
