Description

An entry in config.xml such as:

<plugin name="cordova-plugin-media-capture" spec="1.4.0" >
<variable name="CAMERA_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="App would like to access the camera." />
<variable name="MICROPHONE_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="App would like to access the microphone." />
<variable name="PHOTOLIBRARY_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="App would like to access the photo library." />
</plugin>

does not update the ios.json and *-Info.plist files with the corresponding entries NSCameraUsageDescription, NSMicrophoneUsageDescription and NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription.

This applies when performing "cordova platform add ios [--save]" as well as when changing the main config.xml file with new or updated text entries and/or variables.

The main config.xml file should update the other files (ios.json and *.plist).
