Ah, I was already searching day ago for this issue an by Murphy's Law
as soon as email was send I found an answer:

"the "pin_helper" option is only valid with bluez-libs-2.x &
bluez-utils-2.x and below.
Thats what is causing the service to fail to start up.
Bluez-3.X has replaced pin helpers with passkey agents such as
kbluetoothd and bluez-gnome, the bluez-utils also comes with an
command line agent passkey-agent. "

Can anybody please point me in the direction of documentation that
explains how to use passkey agents on bluez-utils 3.x and later?

I saw that BlueZ website had wiki but that it is no longer available.
