Problem: dev environment "make build" command fails

[djjuhasz]

I'm following the instructions from Archivematica development on Docker Compose, but the make build step fails with an error.

Expected behaviour

make build should build the development Docker images.

Current behaviour

make build errors with the following message:

❯ make build
docker compose build

Oops, my fault - I forgot to update the submodules. After doing git submodule update --init --recursive, make build worked fine.
