C manpages in Ubuntu

I can look up things like sockets, string.h, bind, accept, htons and printf but I keep running into pages that I want to have a look at but don't have. This time it's sizeof. As far as I can remember, these are the apt-get commands I've run so far: CODE sudo apt-get install manpages sudo apt-get install manpages-dev sudo apt-get install manpages-posix sudo apt-get install manpages-posix-dev Anyone know what's missing? -n
