Tried to install librabbitmq with python3.7/3.8.
pip install librabbitmq
Getting the below traceback:

However the installation works for python3.6.

It sounds like something is wrong with your environment.
Can you try to reproduce this in Docker for example?

This is what solved this problem for me:
(Ubuntu 18.04)
sudo apt-get install python3.8-dev

[auvipy]

avoid using this package. py-amqp is way more stable & speedier with cythonized code

This is what solved this problem for me:
(Ubuntu 18.04)
sudo apt-get install python3.8-dev

That's probably the issue.
