Installing fresh XBlock with mentioned approach failes

[CodeWithEmad]

As a part of updating XBlock documentation, I created a simple xblock using edx-cookiecutters with a --no-input flag to test the xblock installation. Mounted the xblock using tutor mounts add /home/emad/Desktop/my-xblock, and checked the mounted path:

(.venv) ➜  quince.3 tutor mounts list

- name: /home/emad/Desktop/my-xblock
  build_mounts:
  - image: openedx
    context: mnt-my-xblock
  - image: openedx-dev
    context: mnt-my-xblock
  compose_mounts:
  - service: openedx
    container_path: /mnt/my-xblock
  - service: openedx-dev
    container_path: /mnt/my-xblock

I collected strings and compiled messages

make extract_translations
cd my_xblock && i18n_tool generate

Here is my local directory

.venv➜  conf tree                           
.
└── locale
    ├── config.yaml
    ├── en
    │   └── LC_MESSAGES
    │       ├── text.mo
    │       └── text.po
    └── __init__.py

3 directories, 4 files

And a translation directory is linked to this directory.
After I run tutor images build opened-dev, following error will raise:

After this, I removed the translation soft link, created a new directory with the same name, and put the contents of locale inside it and the build worked like a charm. My guess is the soft link is not mounted
@kdmccormick you've worked with mounts before. any idea?
