@Obdolbino: You don't need this, you just need to add alias catkin_make="catkin_make -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3" to your .${SHELL}rc file. ROS has a built-in workaround as this issue affects mac users, too.

Hello! Finally figured out about this compilation error: execute_process(/home/*/.cache/pacaur/ros-melodic-catkin/src/build/catkin_generated/env_cached.sh "/usr/bin/python3" "/home//.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/em" "--raw-errors"

Got same for python 2.7 and 3.8. Cmake is trying to use "em" util to color text output or something like this.
And folder site-packages/em contains some em python module. So first I thought something is wrong with this package. Tried to reinstall it from different sources etc. Finally I renamed site-packages/em directory to other name and made a link to a script /usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/em -> /usr/bin/em

Finally installed ros-melodic-desktop-full with python3.8.

@Some packages still have signals as required in the CMakelists.txt. Since you said you used catkin_make manually, this should be easy patchable for you, signals is usually unecessary. If this occurs during the build of one of the packages, please open a issue on github.

I tried compiling a package with catkin_make and it gave me an error about boost saying Could not find 'signals'. Found boost = 1.69. I looked it up and found that signals was removed after 1.68 and the use of signals2 was preferred. But when I tried installing the 1.68 version, catkin_make threw errors for undefined references to libraries that were added in 1.69. Anyone has any clue what might be the problem?

Please apply https://github.com/ros/catkin/pull/975 to fix the issue mentioned by theoT, as was done for https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ros-kinetic-catkin/ .

There is an issue with catkin and the current CMake version: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=915148 and https://github.com/ros/catkin/issues/856 Building e.g. ros-melodic-class-loader results in an error complaining about a missing library "lpthread".

I am also having this trouble; catkin is compiled (per the PKGBUILD) with -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3, but catkin_make always finds /usr/bin/python2 as the PYTHON_EXECUTABLE. Has anyone fixed this issue?

My installation of catkin_make tries to find python2:
