pacman.conf ParallelDownloads option will coredump packagekit.service

As documented by pacman.conf manpage there is an option ParallelDownloads:

ParallelDownloads
           Specifies number of concurrent download streams. The value needs to be a positive integer. If this config option is not set then only one download stream is
           used (i.e. downloads happen sequentially).

But if I enable that option, e.g

ParallelDownloads=5

than packagekit.service will not start anymore.

I my pacman version is:

core/pacman 6.0.0-2
