It contains no packages of its own, but once executed it will download and install the directory /usr/share/openstudio with a few scripts, themes and configuration files. It will also install several packages from the Debian repositories and make changes to system configuration files in order to build its environment. If you want to examine the openstudio script before using it; Download as described below and review it in a text editor.
