SocialSharing-PhoneGap-Plugin: Problem : the plugin doesn't install because of es6-promise-plugin

My version of the cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing is 5.2.1 .

It used to work before but now I have a problem with the dependency of the plugin over es6-promise-plugin.

Installing "cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing" for android
Failed to install 'cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing': Error: Expected plugin to have ID "es6-promise-plugin" but got "cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing".

Failed to restore plugin "cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing" from config.xml. You might need to try adding it again. Error: Error: Expected plugin to have ID "es6-promise-plugin" but got "cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing".
Discovered plugin "cordova.plugins.diagnostic" in config.xml. Adding it to the project

Is it a bug? Have you any idea why the installation is confused ?

I managed to work around the issue by adding this to config.xml before the socialsharing plugin:

<plugin name="es6-promise-plugin" version="4.1.0" />
