[cfe-dev] Can't compile simple OpenMP code with clang 5.0.0

I think libomp is still on version 5.0, (I know, I know).
It is not coupled to LLVM wrt. version numbers.

Last time I checked, LLVM build for debian (and Ububuntu)
came bundled with the OpenMP runtimes (for the host). That
means you should not need libomp-5-dev but just clang-10.
libomp-5-dev is useful if you *don't* want clang but still
target libomp, which is the LLVM OpenMP host runtime, from
gcc, thus use it as a replacement of libgomp.

All that said, doesn't `clang-10 -fopenmp ...` "just work"?
