Description Creme Brulee 2023-07-09 12:49:54 UTC 
I have an uptime of 3 days
packagekitd took 1 gigabyte of memory
after invoking 
"systemctl restart packagekit"
it started to occupy only a few megabytes but the number is rising
I suspect a memory leak

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
I noticed only now when I examined what processes take so much memory
but by searching bugzilla, I see it's an old and still not fixed issue
