Build - -release succeed but build - -prod fail. Why?

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

Hi all,

I want to publish my app, but the startup time is too long so I want to build the app with --prod in order to have shorter startup time.
The problem is that while the following command succeed:
ionic cordova build android --release
the following command fail:
ionic cordova build android --prod
and also the following command fail:
ionic cordova build android --release --prod

The error is:

Error: Metadata version mismatch for module workspace/node_modules/angularfire2/index.d.ts, found version 4, expected 3
