The decimal module seems to build well for me – but if you want to add the patch to this build, feel free to do so: https://github.com/rixx/pkgbuilds

If you want pip3.8 to be available, try running python3.8 -m ensurepip after install.

The _decimal module needs the same patch as for the Python 3.9 package to build successfully: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/a6ddc69f7300bf2260f43f81086450dd89bb209d/trunk/mpdecimal-2.5.1.patch

I still see a broken symlink to libpython3.8m.so:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 user user 22 Jan 25 18:31 ./lib/python3.8/config-3.8-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.8m.so -> ../../libpython3.8m.so

pip3.8 should be included in this package if I recall correctly.

How do I access pip?

I tried python3.8 -m pip but it just says /usr/bin/python3.8: No module named pip

edit: Turns out python3.8 -m venv works, and the virtualenv comes with pip. Would have liked to not need an environment though.

@max-k python3.8 --version showed 3.9.0 today for me too, and I was wondering. But I realized I was in a venv which I created back when python was python3.8.

I don't reproduce it on another system. Thank you anyway.

python3.8 --version
Python 3.8.6

I can't reproduce that, sorry. I ran a complete system upgrade and installed python38, and am seeing the expected output:

python3.8 --version
Python 3.8.6

If you find the problem, please submit a patch with the fix.
