We are looking at it. It seems to be a problem in the edk2-basetools but at this point it still isn't obvious. You can do a 'pip uninstall edk2-basetools' and then I would expect your build would work. I also see that you didn't build edk2 basetools (step 6) documented here: edk2/EmulatorPkg/PlatformCI at master · tianocore/edk2 (github.com) .  Without doing that your build will fail as well. The CI system is building fine so we are still looking into it. I'll update the thread when we have more info.
