I am facing the same issue,
If i build my app with XCode 11, my usage descriptions (NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription & NSCameraUsageDescription in my case) are empty while they are not if i build with XCode 10.
I my config file, i also add another key (GADApplicationIdentifier). This one is correctly added in the Info.plist
<config-file target="*-Info.plist" parent="GADApplicationIdentifier">
<string>blah</string>
</config-file>
<config-file parent="NSCameraUsageDescription" target="*-Info.plist" overwrite="true">
<string>We use the camera if you choose to take a picture for your profile</string>
</config-file>
<config-file parent="NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription" target="*-Info.plist" overwrite="true">
<string>We use your photos if you choose to use a photo for your profile</string>
</config-file>
So this is as if the 2 values were erased or overwritten.
Still no news on the subject?
