load_dataset hang on file_lock
State: closed | Author: tomacai (NONE)

I am trying to load the squad dataset. Fails on Windows 10 but succeeds in Colab.
Transformers:  3.3.1
Datasets:  1.0.2
Windows 10 (also tested in WSL)

```
datasets.logging.set_verbosity_debug()
datasets.
train_dataset = load_dataset('squad', split='train')
valid_dataset = load_dataset('squad', split='validation')

train_dataset.features
```

```

Interrupting the jupyter kernel we are in a file lock.

In Google Colab the download is ok. In contrast to a local run in colab dataset_infos.json is downloaded

Comments: Can you try to upgrade to a more recent version of datasets?

Thank, upgrading to 1.1.3 resolved the issue.

Having the same issue with `datasets 1.1.3` of `1.5.0` (both tracebacks look the same) and `kilt_wikipedia`, Ubuntu 20.04
