>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9559
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: CordovaLib
>    Affects Versions: 5.2.0
>         Environment: OS X 10.10.5 
> cordova-cli 5.2.0
>            Reporter: Shazron Abdullah

> *Repro:*
> {code}
> cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-battery-status@^1.0.0
> Fetching plugin "cordova-plugin-battery-status@^1.0.0" via npm
> Failed to fetch plugin cordova-plugin-battery-status@^1.0.0 via registry.
> Probably this is either a connection problem, or plugin spec is incorrect.
> Check your connection and plugin name/version/URL.
> Error: No compatible version found: cordova-plugin-battery-status@'">=1.0.0 <2.0.0"'
> Valid install targets:
> ["0.2.1","0.2.3","0.2.4","0.2.5","0.2.6","0.2.7","0.2.9","0.2.10","0.2.11","0.2.12","1.0.0","1.1.0"]
> {code}
> *Expected:*
> The plugin can be installed
> *Actual:*
> The plugin cannot be installed.
> Note in the error log, the version is expanded from:
> {code}
>  @^1.0.0
> {code}
> to:
> {code}
> @">=1.0.0 <2.0.0"
> {code}
> But, it appears the double quotes around the expanded version in the error log are *wrapped with single quotes* now, resulting in the error.
> The version is expanded using this *processPluginVersion* function:
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-lib/blob/3e34b557c8bb6876022f0a4186b81d4ff8e5da75/cordova-lib/src/plugman/registry/registry.js#L282
> From this commit:
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-lib/commit/024b970b26d3d8b7f9a6b2f0eab2325d7716deef
> The fix appears to be not calling the function *processPluginVersion* and passing it to *npm cache add* as is:
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-lib/blob/3e34b557c8bb6876022f0a4186b81d4ff8e5da75/cordova-lib/src/plugman/registry/registry.js#L270
> The purpose of this function is because we are using an older version of npm that may not understand carets. Is this still truly the case? If not, we could get rid of this function -- while still keeping CB-9147 fixed/resolved
