I am having a trouble with building an android project

Here is details about my environment : Cordova : 8.1.2 Ionic : 4.7.1 cordova-android : 7.1.4 cordova-plugin-datecs-printer 0.8.3

Here is the list of plugin that I have:
cordova-plugin-datecs-printer 0.8.3 "DatecsPrinter" cordova-plugin-device 2.0.2 "Device" cordova-plugin-globalization 1.11.0 "Globalization" cordova-plugin-network-information 2.0.1 "Network Information" cordova-plugin-splashscreen 5.0.2 "Splashscreen" cordova-plugin-statusbar 2.4.2 "StatusBar" cordova-plugin-whitelist 1.3.3 "Whitelist" ionic-plugin-keyboard 2.2.1 "Keyboard" phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner 8.0.1 "BarcodeScanner"

and here is the output of the build : `:app:processDebugResourcesC:\Users\Safouen.gradle\caches\transforms-1\files-1.1\support-compat-28.0.0.aar\f105e5b00e90d554c6eb610db690730e\res\values\values.xml:133:5-70: AAPT: error: resource android:attr/fontVariationSettings not found.

  Failed to execute aapt `

I confirmed this problem with cordova version 8.1.1

[safouen]

I have downgraded cordova even to 6.5.0 but it did not work

[safouen]

Solved this by changing the plugin.xml file in the plugin from:

<framework src="com.android.support:support-v4:+" />

to:

<framework src="com.android.support:support-v4:27.1.0" />

[adhisimon]

@safouen I think you should not close this issue yet, because this project maintainer has not aware of it and they have not patch the code.

[safouen]

ok reopening it again.

[ichuot]

please fix it @giorgiofellipe
