--- Comment #1 from Andre Heinecke <aheinecke at intevation.de> ---
Probably not the nicest behavior (showing the error every time) but basically
Kleopatra informs you that it can not configure LDAP as dirmanger has no ldap
support.
There are some dynamic gpgconf options depending on compiled features but LDAP
support is assumed to be available afaik.

A good fix for this would probably be to add a selftest for Kleopatra and use
that to inform the user that LDAP is unavailable and greying out the
configuration options.
But on the other hand LDAP is quite important for CRL checks. You basically can
not implement full S/MIME if you can not do CRL checks over ldap.

You also might want to file a report with arch linux that they should build
gnupg with ldap support. 
(I'm using gpg2 2.0.25 and "gpgconf --list-options dirmngr" shows those
options)
