What dependencies, these days, are not downloaded over the net?

If someone put this app on CDs and gave them out at a supermarket, well, it worked for AOL 30 years back but not now.

You don't want to add untrusted binary download sources in your Linux system. Your distrib is already doing that. This is not strictly about "downloads from the internet" of course
