Description

Trying to install facebook-plugin:

$ cordova plugin add ~/Cordova/phonegap-facebook-plugin --variable APP_ID=616451688482285 --variable APP_NAME="hybrid-app"
Installing "com.phonegap.plugins.facebookconnect" for android
Installing "com.phonegap.plugins.facebookconnect" for blackberry10
Installing "com.phonegap.plugins.facebookconnect" for ios
Failed to install 'com.phonegap.plugins.facebookconnect':CordovaError: Plugin doesn't support this project's cordova version. cordova: 3.4.0, failed version requirement: >=3.5.0
...
Plugin doesn't support this project's cordova version. cordova: 3.4.0, failed version requirement: >=3.5.0

ok, so let's update ios:

$ cordova platform update ios

module.js:340
throw err;

shelljs is listed in the package.json:

$ grep shelljs ~/.cordova/lib/npm_cache/cordova-ios/3.7.0/package/package.json
"shelljs": "^0.2.6",

but it isn't included:

$ find ~/.cordova/lib/npm_cache/cordova-ios/3.7.0/package -name shelljs|wc -l
