Description

Dears,
DDI CodeBook is at version 2.6, but Dataverse uses version 2.5. This isn't a problem, but we've also noticed that when downloading DDI from the Dataset, it loads with version 2.5, but when downloading DDI from files, it comes with version 2.0.

I am using version 6.10.1, but this issue has been occurring since version 6.8.

Research direction

Reproduce the discrepancy by downloading DDI CodeBook metadata from a Dataset and from its files, comparing the reported versions. Trace the two download paths and identify where the file response selects version 2.0; done means the file download reports the intended CodeBook version consistently with the Dataset download.
