[jira] [Commented] (CB-9626) Cordova-Lib requires NPM as a dependency

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9626?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16149021#comment-16149021 ] 

Yohan Lasorsa commented on CB-9626:
-----------------------------------

This issue is becoming more and more serious over time: now that cordova use npm to fetch dependencies as default, it use the `npm@2` version installed because of `cordova-lib` instead of the system one (`npm@5`), making it impossible to add platform or plugin that have `peerDependencies` (older npm versions have issues with this).
This completely break my build on Windows 10, and the only workaround is to use the `--nofetch` args, but then it's some recent plugins that fails. 

Please do something about this!

> I'm using NPM 3.x (3.3.2) and cordova-create is installing NPM 2.x in my node modules folder.
> There should be a way around this, I rather not have a copy of NPM (especially an older copy) in my node_modules.
> NPM 3.x is stable, included in node 5.
