"Bad zip file, please report" when downloading dataset using Kaggle API

[hlysine]

I was downloading a dataset automatically using the Kaggle API in a Streamlit application. When the download has finished, Kaggle API throws an error and fails to unzip the data.

The dataset is https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/nih-chest-xrays/sample/data I was using kaggle-1.5.16 in a Linux container on Hugging Face.

• Downloading the same dataset using Kaggle API on my Windows machine works without issue
• Downloading the same dataset using Kaggle web works without issue
• Downloading other datasets using the same setup on Hugging Face works without issue

The only relevant log I can find is this:
