Description Vladimir Riha 2013-11-03 12:31:12 UTC 
Doesn't matter if it is new Cordova type project or HTML5 with created Cordova resources, either way it fails with output below. I've found [1] issue which could cause this behaviour. Workaround is to use older Cordova 3.1.0-0.1.0

I think this is a good patch candidate

I have a fix. Unfortunately I'm not able to fetch due to abort: error: Operation timed out.

Works fine on Ubuntu and Windows8. I've tried to create Cordova project / Create resources in HTML5, clean, build, run.
