Android build failing cordova-plugin-geolocation

Upgrading project to cordova-android@6.3.0 is causing warning(skipping) for cordova-plugin-geolocation because this plugin has dependency on <dependency id="cordova-plugin-compat" version="^1.0.0" /> which went deprecated from cordova-android@6.3.0.

The solution seems to be updating plugin.xml of cordova-plugin-geolocation to following value:
<dependency id="cordova-plugin-compat" version="1.2.0" />

As per https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-compat:
This plugin is no longer being worked on as the functionality provided by this plugin is now included in cordova-android 6.3.0. You should upgrade your application to use version 1.2.0 of this plugin. It will detect whether or not the plugin is required based on the version of cordova-android your app uses.
