How can I install C++ man pages manually?

Question

Sadly, yum install libstdc++-docs doesn't work for me:

No package libstdc++-docs available.

So, I can only install it myself.

I've found the C++ man pages here, how can I install it?

I guess just put it under /usr/share/man/man3 will do the job, but I'm not sure...

Any tips?

UPDATE

Anyone knows how to install c+ man pages manually(no yum,no rpm)?

I'm running Debian so the package names may be diffent, but you might as well give it a try:

I think libstdc++6-4.5-doc might be what you're looking for? Maybe the package name is the same in your distro's repositories?

Anyway, I don't know yum very well (only used it twice), but if I remember correctly, it's got a search command as well, just like aptitude has. Doesn't yum search libstdc++ give you anything useful?
