We are not likely to release a 1.11.1 version for 3.8 to pypi. However, you can install kivy master using pip install kivy[base] kivy_examples --pre --extra-index-url https://kivy.org/downloads/simple/.

@GwenaelPellenArkeup this is because the install is trying to compile in case of absence of pre-built binary in wheels.

Kivy should be releasing a 3.8 wheel shortly.
