@frafra could you be running it in a directory where the datasets were already exported?

[frafra]

@wardi I executed the same commands in an empty folder. I tried again using mktemp -d and entering into the temporary directory just to be sure. ckanapi creates a $dataset/data folder structure with no files.

[wardi]

Sounds like a bug. I don't use this feature but if you have a chance to submit a fix I'd appreciate it.

[frafra]

It looks that the directory was not empty after all.
