'set_logger_provider' no longer importable from 'opentelemetry.sdk._logs'

[wbarnha]

A week ago I was able to run the example for logging in https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python/tree/main/docs/examples/logs.

Steps to reproduce
I install either version via:

pip install opentelemetry-exporter-otlp==1.15.0

or

pip install opentelemetry-exporter-otlp==1.14.0

Then run the following code:

from opentelemetry.sdk._logs import set_logger_provider

What is the expected behavior?
Should import without any issues.

What is the actual behavior?

ImportError: cannot import name 'set_logger_provider' from 'opentelemetry.sdk._logs' (/usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/opentelemetry/sdk/_logs/__init__.py)

Additional context
I found that when I installed opentelemetry-exporter-otlp==1.14.0, opentelemetry-sdk==1.15.0 was installed as well. When I installed opentelemetry-sdk==1.14.0, everything works fine again.

Yes, the example shown here:

https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python/blob/main/docs/examples/logs/example.py#L10

no longer works with the 1.15.0 release. Is there a change in the package and how this should work going forward?

I've encountered the same problem and searched for the method in the source code and found it at a new location:
from opentelemetry._logs import set_logger_provider

Would someone like to send a PR to update the example?
