    Grrr... That was actually debug code I intended to remove. Thought I caught 
them all. 


> Adding a platform with a caret version adds the very latest rather than the

>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: CordovaLib
>    Affects Versions: 5.0.0
>            Reporter: Tim Barham
>            Assignee: Tim Barham
>
> If you add, say, windows 3.5.0 platform to a project with the save flag:
> {noformat}
> cordova platform add [email protected] --save
> {noformat}
> We write out {{^3.5.0}} to {{config.xml}}.
> If the platform is removed then re-added, we install {{4.0.0}} instead of the 
> expected {{3.8.2}}.
> This is because internally we are using a version of {{npm}} that doesn't 
> understand caret versions.
