             Summary: Installing plugin with symlink option pollutes original directory with intermediate files
                 Key: CB-11771
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11771
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: Plugman
    Affects Versions: 1.3.0
            Reporter: Martin Bektchiev
            Assignee: Martin Bektchiev
            Priority: Minor


When installing a plugin with custom library with the --link option the whole directory is symlinked and temporary files leak into the original plugin directory. This leads to broken builds if the same plugin is linked in 2 projects targeting different Cordova versions.

Steps to reproduce:

* Clone https://github.com/Telerik-Verified-Plugins/Telerik-AppFeedback plugin (or any other with an embedded android library)
* Create 2 test projects with Cordova Android 4.0 and 5.2
* Install the plugin using the --link option of plugman in both projects
* Build the Cordova 5.2 project
* Attempt to build the Cordova 4.0 project - multiple java errors of the following kind are generated:
Unknown source file : Uncaught translation error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already added: Landroid/support/v7/appcompat/R$dimen;
