Question

Ubuntu 12.04...

I had fedora a couple of years back and I saw the man pages for the following there...

unistd.h,
sys/types.h,
standard typedefs (suffixed by "_t") etc.

I tried this...

man unistd

But it didn't find it :(

I think those pages are not there in Ubuntu.

Although man stdio works and other man pages are there.

So

  • if Ubuntu doesn't have those pages, please tell me how to download them
  • And what is the command for viewing standard typedef man page ie man page for size_t, pid_t, off_t, clock_t etc.

I trid man stddef but not found...

Was it helpful?

Solution

SOLVED

This is what needed to do...

sudo apt-get install manpages-posix-dev

to get those pages :)
