That's not because 3.8 broke something. The packages you mentioned require compiling. To make it simpler for users, the maintainers also provide precompiled versions. The issue here is that no one precompiled them for 3.8 yet. You can still install them but you need to have compiler and their dependencies installed.
The length of release cycle is irrelevant for this particular problem.

- icegreentea2 7y agoThose packages do need re-compiling, but the official recompiles are blocked by breakages in 3.8. One of the issues blocking scipy release is a bug in 3.8's multiprocessing library: https://bugs.python.org/issue38501 https://bugs.python.org/issue38501 Technically they could probably patch around that in their test-suite... but it really is regression in the language.
