"ionic cordova prepare android" keeps on trying to install iOS plugins causing the build to fail on Ubuntu 16.04

I am currently contributing to an existing iOS/Android app using ionic cordova. Upon cloning the repo, i tried running

$ cordova prepare android

However, it's not working. It keeps on giving me this result

I also tried various fixes such as trying to install ios-sim globally with npm however, i'll be stuck on installing various dependencies for it.

I'm on vagrant running Ubuntu/Xenial 16.04 so could this be a linux issue since iOS SDK will not work unless i am on a Mac? Please take note that this is working on my Mac in the office.

Since my issue revolved only on not being able to install properly because of some iOS dependencies, I was able to work my way around it by temporarily removing the platform by running this:

$ cordova platform remove ios

After doing so, i was able to properly run this properly:

$ ionic cordova prepare
