Make results in error linking C shared module related to python 3.8

Hello. I am getting an error I do not understand when I try to make during build. I have done some google search, but no fruitful results. I think this may be happening due to python version since I had this working before.

Is there a way that I can rebuild using python 2.7 instead of pythob 3.8? Or is there a way to solve this issue?

Thank you. I am attaching my cmake .. result and make result below.
