Gotcha.

% LANG=C apt policy libffi6
libffi6:
  Installed: 3.3~20160224-1
  Candidate: 3.3~20160224-1
  Version table:
 *** 3.3~20160224-1 100
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     3.2.1-8 500
        500 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian sid/main amd64 Packages

Downgraded to version in Sid, re-installed original upower.service file 
and upower starts up correctly on next boot.

I did not think about checking libffi6 version, sorry.

Thanks,
