The make base_os=centos8 fails since teh qemu version on the ubuntu site has changed. It has moved from 9.7 to 9.8.
Can you please update the Makefile to reflect this?
The modification I made was:

# define variables
#   UPDATED QEMU_USER_STATIC_DEB_FILE := qemu-user-static_4.0+dfsg-0ubuntu9.7_amd64.deb
QEMU_USER_STATIC_DEB_FILE := qemu-user-static_4.0+dfsg-0ubuntu9.8_amd64.deb

The qemu version available in the Ubuntu repository has once again changed. The version specified in the Makefile no longer exists. The following error is reported if you try to run 'make':

[root@pmtest cross-sms-aarch64.sh-master]# make base_os=centos8

make: *** [Makefile:74: usr/bin/qemu-aarch64-static] Error 8

A version of qemu-user-static that is in the repo and works is:
qemu-user-static_2.5+dfsg-5ubuntu10.51_amd64.deb

I know it is not good practice, but perhaps you could consider adding a working version of qemu-user-static to your distribution rather than trying to download a specific version that clearly becomes out of date quite quickly.
At least this way the make would always work.

In the file Dockerfile.centos8 there is a sequence of commands as follows:
RUN sed -i -e s/enabled=0/enabled=1/g /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-PowerTools.repo &&
dnf update -y &&
dnf install -y epel-release openssh which file

But the line with dnf update -y && causes the container to be updated to CentOS 8.3 which is not want we want.
This line should be removed to ensure the container stays at CentOS 8.2
In fact with this command present the make base_os=centos8 fails since lmod-ohpc fails to find a correct version of the lua-filesystem package.
Please update the Dockerfile.centos8
