The same cause as #29 - cordova-plugin-camera references the legacy Android Support Library so you need to add cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter to your project to patch it:

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter

I opened a new issue in #69

cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter is a dependency, so if its not added it means that there is some error (like for instance missing deps, it uses couple npm modules like recursive-readdir, xml-js, performance-now, ...)

check the logs
