PS:

FWIW actually it's

  sudo apt install $(apt search ubuntustudio|cut -d/ -f1|grep -v
  [[:upper:]])

Assuming this should work for all Ubuntu releases, I still wonder if
it's not to obscure.

Listing the package names makes it more transparent, but might not work
for all Ubuntu releases.

Note, this is just an example, there are several similar issues on
other sites.
