If a dependency exists, but not for the present architecture then print a message indicating this, instead of the present error which says that it just doesn't exist (can be confusing).
Possible Solution
Look for the dependency for the current arch. If found, then it gets installed.
If not found, look for the dependency under amd64. If it’s found, then assume we don’t have an arm64 dependency available. Log the error.
If it's not found, then we have a dependency that really just doesn't exist.
The logic here is that if we have an amd64 dependency (which is the full set of available dependencies), then it’s a valid dependency but we just don’t have one for arm64. If there is no amd64 dependency, then you’ve just asked for something we don’t supply and we give the present error message.
Perhaps we could generalize this a bit more and say, if it's not found under some other architecture then it truly is missing. That way if more architectures are added in the future, then we'll just support that correctly.
Motivation
Multi-arch support.
