ok - so the file is missing - why is powertop asking for a non-existent
file ?

It seems you didn't run the initial calibration. If you are running on NB, 
disconnect AC and run:
# powertop --calibrate
Then let the powertop to collect enough data (approx. 1 hour). After then it 
will show approx. wattage for each process / device. When you exit, it saves 
its state and the message should gone.

It is only warning and it should be ignored, if it annoy you and you 
can't/don't want to run the calibration just:
# touch /var/cache/powertop/saved_parameters.powertop

Maybe the wording of the message is a bit confusing, I will forward this
to upstream.
