[jira] [Created] (CB-9771) Installation of plugins' dependencies does not work

Alberto Mardegan created CB-9771:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Installation of plugins' dependencies does not work
                 Key: CB-9771
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9771
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Ubuntu
    Affects Versions: 5.3.2
         Environment: Linux 15.04, Cordova from the cordova-ubuntu PPA
            Reporter: Alberto Mardegan
            Assignee: Maxim Ermilov


The mechanism for declaring plugin's dependencies is convoluted and currently broken. The only plugin using it is the facebookconnect plugin, which is still not merged upstream, and which doesn't successfully manage to install its dependencies.
Instead of asking plugins to install yet another JSON file using non conventional elements in plugin.xml, we should just use the <config-file> element and let plugins declare dependencies with that.
