zone_journal_compact: could not get zone size: not found

Indeed the LDAP plugin does not provide the getsize method. Until now it 
never has.
I'll notify the maintainer.

I have a question that you may be able to answer. Is the getsize method 
a required method or an optional one?
If the latter then the zone_journal_compact function needs to become a 
bit more friendly with its logging, because journalctl colors the 
message in red (meaning: something is wrong here).
