I guess it does not really hurt as gcc -fopenmp uses its own
implementation and the other is just there. It for sure seems
unnecessary. I also did not test these packages from pkgsrc. One might
ask Adam … who did the update to darktable …

I was only becoming aware of a separate OpenMP lib being a thing through

	https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/issues/14624

where it is mentioned that one can install libomp with Homebrew.


Alrighty then,
