That indicates that you either don't have the standard library, or it's not in your toolchain's include path. How did you install clang, and what distribution+version of Linux are you using?

Also I tried to find chrono header, and looks like it is available on my system:
$ dpkg -S /usr/include/boost/chrono.hpp
libboost1.67-dev:amd64: /usr/include/boost/chrono.hpp
$ locate chrono\.h
/usr/include/boost/chrono.hpp
/usr/include/boost/asio/detail/chrono.hpp
/usr/include/boost/chrono/chrono.hpp
/usr/include/boost/chrono/detail/inlined/chrono.hpp
/usr/include/boost/chrono/detail/inlined/mac/chrono.hpp
/usr/include/boost/chrono/detail/inlined/posix/chrono.hpp
/usr/include/boost/chrono/detail/inlined/win/chrono.hpp
/usr/include/boost/chrono/typeof/boost/chrono/chrono.hpp
/usr/share/doc/autoconf-archive/html/ax_005fboost_005fchrono.html
That's Boost, not the standard library; this project doesn't use Boost. What does:
dpkg -S chrono | grep libstdc++
show? And failing that:
dpkg -l | grep libstdc++
As far as I can tell the clang package depends on a version (depending on your Debian version) of libstdc++ so I don't know why you wouldn't have it if you installed clang via the package manager. For instance, https://packages.debian.org/stretch/clang-3.8 depends on libstdc++-6-dev. (It would also be very strange for you to have Boost installed, but not the standard library.)

Don't remember, but maybe it was necessary for another software build.

I have an idea, but I am not sure. Perhaps there in /usr/include/c++/ should be alternatives links to one of these headers? I.e., something like /usr/include/c++/chrono -> /usr/include/c++/9/chrono
denizzzka
on 1 Sep 2019
I don't see any links like that in a working Debian-based setup. However, clang++ -v on a test C++ file suggests that it's finding the standard library through GCC-based paths, so it may be that for some reason it's not configured to use the paths that the dependent packages are installing into.
Does installing the g++ package resolve this? If so, I can update the instructions.

Already installed. I am updated it from unstable repository without any positive result, flutter run returns same lines.
denizzzka

I'm afraid I'm not sure what else to suggest; it seems like your clang installation isn't correctly configured to compile C++ projects, but I'm not sure why that would be the case. You may want to try a more general resource like Stack Overflow (there's nothing unusual or Flutter-specific about this; #include <memory> is pretty basic for C++ compilation) and see if someone more familiar with edge cases in Linux C++ toolchain setups has more suggestions.
If you do find a solution I'd be interested to know what ends up working, to see if it's something we could detect and suggest a fix for in doctor.

Ok
Some more information: this is how clang command displayed in flutter run -v:

No one -I options for /usr/include/c++. What is responsible for filling out these options?

No, the problem was something else. Maybe gcc-multilib package was missing.
Now all builds works fine.

My solution is
sudo apt install libstdc++-8-dev
The gcc-multilib package is not necessary.

In my case this package has already installed (if I'm not mistaken)
We need to determine exactly which packages are strictly needed.

I hit the same problem (my Linux distro is debian stretch) after having installed clang (via sudo apt-get install clang) and eventually ended up solving it by installing libstdc++-9-dev.
sudo apt-get install libstdc++-9-dev
