It uses makeself as the wrapper format (shell script+tar.bz2):

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/utils/makeself

Inside that is a setup.sh, which runs setup.gtk/gtk2, running strings -a
on those files gives some loki_* functions, looks like it is using the
loki system. The app itself seems to reside in 2 tarballs (data and
program).
