Description

cordova create app1
cd app1
cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.vibration
cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.contacts
cordova platform add ios
cordova compile

The compile fails with a long error:
Undefined symbols for architecture i386:
"_ABAddressBookAddRecord", referenced from:
___20-[CDVContacts save:]_block_invoke_2 in CDVContacts.o

The following build commands failed:

It seems like some work the prepare step is doing in the platform add needs to come before it adds in the plugins, also inside the platform add. Doing a prepare after the platform add will fix the build, but it shouldn't be necessary since the platform add does a prepare.
