You invest your time unwisely. You save some time by not installing
everything and
waste more of your (and our!) time by fixing problems from this
incomplete installation.
Get the DVD and install from there, if your internet is so broken.

AFAIK it could use these dependences but these are not maintained. I
see a project you could contribute to.
