As pointed more than a year ago, docs are telling us to create an inconsistent project state when trying to add a background color to adaptive icons.
At the time, Erisu agreed it was a problem and would update docs, but it haven't happened so far.
Problem
This is actually quite bad, since you cannot understand what's going on from console output, not even with --verbose. Since that's all "hidden magic" from Cordova, it should be clearer when something internal can't be found because the related file was probably overridden by you or a plugin.
I'm not sure if cordova prepare solves it once you rename the file, but I solved it by readding the platform. This is not a good experience.
What is expected to happen?
We should be able to follow docs and it should work.
What does actually happen?
This page tells us to override a file that Cordova creates internally, and then it breaks the build horribly in a very early step.
