My fault, I thought you were talking about the indentation of the code
block as a whole, not the code *within* the code block.

Currently when the `org-src-preserve-indentation' variable is set it
preserves the indentation between the beginning of the line and the
beginning of the code, not the indentation between the beginning of the
code block and the beginning of the code, so for example the following
un-intuitive option would control the indentation within the code
blocks.

1. Download and install color-theme.

      #+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/color-theme-6.6.0")
(require 'color-theme)
      #+end_src

   1. Download and install color-theme-leuven.

            #+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/color-theme-leuven")
(require 'color-theme-leuven)
            #+end_src

      1. Restart Emacs.

                  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
(restart)
                  #+end_src

I think this is a feature of `org-src-preserve-indentation' which should
probably be changed to make using it with indented code blocks more
natural.  In this case, unless you need to preserve indentation within a
code block a simpler solution is to set `org-src-preserve-indentation'
to nil.

Hope this helps,
