This is the first time I've tried to use the CLI tools with the new 3.0 project structure, and I've discovered that I can't uninstall a plugin that only has dependencies (no source files, either JS or native)
Specifically, I've built a mobilespec app, installing the mobile-spec-dependencies plugin, which does nothing but depend on every Cordova core plugin. I want to remove it, so that I can remove and reinstall one of the dependencies, but the CLI tools will not remove it. Digging through cordova-cli, it looks like "cordova plugin rm" attempts to invoke plugman.uninstall once per platform, but mobile-spec-dependencies doesn't declare any platforms. plugman.uninstall seems to do two things, which I think should be separated: It removes the plugin from a specific platform, and it removes the plugin from the project itself. In the case of a dependency-only plugin, we only need to do the second task (which currently doesn't get done). For a regular plugin which is installed in multiple platforms, this also fails, since removing the plugin for the first platform deletes the plugin source directory, and then removal for subsequent platforms fails with the error message "[Error: Plugin <plugin id> not found. Already uninstalled?]" Can anyone explain the technical reasons behind this, or should I work on separating those functions?
