[solved]yaourt local database save - command not found

Question

i tried following this link to save yaourt packages to a local folder, but i get an error
[root@myhost yaourt]# yaourt -Syu --devel --aur
/etc/yaourtrc: line 49: ExportToLocalRepository: command not found
comments at this page with similar errors doesnt offer any solution.

Answer 1

1.first thing i just added the line
ExportToLocalRepository /var/cache/pacman/pkg-local
to the bottom of the yaourtrc file as per the wiki and ended up with the error.
/etc/yaourtrc: line 49: ExportToLocalRepository: command not found
2.after falconindy's idea i added #
#ExportToLocalRepository /var/cache/pacman/pkg-local
but now i dont see the error but then package is not getting saved in the pkg-local folder.
3.karol i tried your step,but still the packages are not saved in the pkg-local folder.
this is yaourtrc file after the edits but still packages are not saved....
