Description
I got this error when I tried to build the repo on my Mac which has an Apple M1 Processor (arm64):
#8 121.7 dpkg-deb: error: failed to read archive 'python3-apt_1.4.3_amd64.deb': No such file or directory
------
executor failed running [/bin/sh -c /install.sh && rm -rf /install.sh]: exit code: 2
make: *** [base-debian-9] Error 1
To be honest, all I need is the minimal code needed to create an arm64 base image for Splunk. Can you fork a branch for me that contains only the files for that?

Research direction
Start with the base-debian-9 Make target and the /install.sh step that fails while building on arm64. Check how the build selects the python3-apt package architecture and whether the repository supports an arm64 base image. Done means the requested minimal Splunk base image builds successfully on an Apple M1.
