Description

If you do not specify a version number, it works as expected. However it fails if you specify a version number

Output – this is expected (no version number specified):
C:\Users\muratsu\Documents\cordova_old\platform-plugin-cache
> cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.camera
Fetching plugin "org.apache.cordova.camera" via plugin registry
npm http GET http://registry.cordova.io/org.apache.cordova.camera
npm http GET http://registry.cordova.io/org.apache.cordova.camera
npm http GET http://registry.cordova.io/org.apache.cordova.camera

C:\Users\muratsu\Documents\cordova_old\platform-plugin-cache
> ls plugins
org.apache.cordova.camera

Output – This is not, version number specified (not expected):

If a specific version is specified and the plugin / platform is in the cache, there is no reason to do a lookup in the public repo. Currently plugin add fails when offline even if that specific version of the plugin is cached locally which doesn't make any sense.
