Near-Real Time RIC Installation Guide, Step 4 error

[romilbalar]

At step 4: Deploy the near-Real Time RIC,
The command:

#cd RIC-Deployment/bin
sudo ./deploy-ric-platform -f ../RECIPE_EXAMPLE/PLATFORM/example_recipe_oran_e_release_modified_e2.yaml

looks for "example_recipe_oran_e_release_modified_e2.yaml" which does not currently exist in that specified 'PLATFORM' directory.

Current band-aid solution: replace the command as -
sudo ./deploy-ric-platform -f ../RECIPE_EXAMPLE/PLATFORM/example_recipe_oran_e_release_e2.yaml,
for a successful installation.

This is a bug i have seen as well. The file does show up sometimes as it is supposed to. This seems to be an issue with the updating of the submodule. Does this small repository need to be a submodule or can we simply include it in the main oaic repo to avoid this bug?

[romilbalar]

I believe including it in the main repo should be the way to go until we can resolve the submodule 'refreshing' problem.

Possibly an easier fix would be to add to the documentation the step to change to the root of the RECIPE folder and run git submodule update --init --recursive --remote which pulls the required file for setup. This would only involve the documentation being updated to fix this bug. Should we do this?
