Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

I have set it to shut down when UPS is low and also to shut down when
UPS is critically low. When on UPS power, the battery discharges. There
is a notification that UPS is critically low, but it does not attempt to
shut down. Then UPS battery dies and the system abruptly turns off too.

I suspect that the reason bight be that it monitors time until battery
empties, instead of monitoring percentage of battery charge. It seems
that the time to empty is incorrect, while percentage is correct.

My UPS is a Belkin

What you expected to happen: When UPS power is low/critically low, the system 
should take action based on the power preferences (either hibernate or shut 
down)
What actually happened: UPS power gets low/critically low and no action is 
taken.
The minimal series of steps necessary to make it happen, where step 1 is "start 
the program". 
1. Power Management Preferences|On UPS Power|When Power is low/critically 
low|Shut down
2. Pull the plug so that system runs on UPS power
3. Wait until UPS power is low
