I run darcs get http://laconi.ca/darcs laconica

when running command i get "darcs failed: File './classes/Profile.php' already 
exists!".

I made sure to delete the entire laconica folder before running the command.

Any advice?

Thanks,
Anthony

Try darcs get --hashed http://laconi.ca/darcs laconica and see if it
improves matters.  You'll need a darcs version > 2

I think what you're facing is that the laconi.ca repositories stores
filenames that differ only in case, and you have a case-insensitive
file system.

On the other hand, you may want to note that laconi.ca have switched to
git recently, unless I'm mistaken.

Thanks much kowey,

adding the --hashed option worked for me.  I appreciate your quick response.
