• What went wrong:
  A problem occurred configuring root project 'android'.

Could not find support-v4.jar (com.android.support:support-v4:26.1.0).
Searched in the following locations:

We are using cordova-android version 6.4.0

It's the same issue of #521

Temporarily I wrote a prebuild hook, you may find it here https://gist.github.com/emilianobonassi/6cee2265de170db28b66cb41d2cb41b1

It works for version 6.3.0

For the mantainers, we should cherry pick 03c62e1 for every release we would like to support.

Currently only the latest version (7.1.x) is supported. Typically we stop supporting older versions after a period of about 6 months, barring security issues. I know many people are still relying on the 6.4.x versions for compatibility with some plugins, but the upcoming 7.1.2 release should allow everyone to upgrade.

Thanks for providing a hook though! That's a great workaround for people who are currently unable to upgrade.

Closing as it’s fixed in #523

You should add the -N option to the patch command so that it's idempotent.

patch -N platforms/android/build.gradle ${patchPath}
