condor fails to build with Python 3.8.0b3 in Fedora 32.

If this package won't build with 3.8, it won't be installable, along with all its dependent packages, in Fedora 32 and further. Furthermore, as it fails to install, its dependent packages will fail to install and/or build as well. Please rebuild the package in Fedora 32 (rawhide). Let us know here if you have any questions. Thank You!
I have removed the python2 dependencies on the f32 branch. HTCondor now builds properly with Python 3.8.
Thank you!
