This is part of the libapparmor bindings which are generated with swig, 
which I'm not really familiar with. However, there's an interesting 
detail on http://www.swig.org/Release/RELEASENOTES for swig 4.0.1 (which 
is the latest release):
    - Add Python 3.8 support.

Which swig version gets used in the failing builds?
If it's older than 4.0.1, then updating swig is probably the first thing 
to do/test ;-)

Note that this is just a wild guess ;-)


Regards,

Christian Boltz
