When deploying the awx-operator for the first time on a new K3s cluster, i use the following command: `kubectl apply -k .`

This procudes the following output:

```bash

error: resource mapping not found for name: "awx-network" namespace: "awx" from ".": no matches for kind "AWX" in version "awx.ansible.com/v1beta1"
ensure CRDs are installed first

```

If I do a `kubectl delete -k .` and wait a few minutes, then try `kubectl apply -k .` again everything works fine.

I guess there may be some depencencies or the order I have defined things that causes this behavior. Anyone with any insights?

Below are the files involved:

**kustomization.yaml**

```yaml
