Nothing to be sure to get rid of any interfering package.
You could filter out any arch:all and any non C/c++ package I
guess. But is that worth it? Maybe the compiled python scripts were
created with a miscompiled python and are damaged? Or any other
sideeffect of using gcc-4.0 to build the debs.
The speed of your connection also shouldn't matter as long as you
don't pay by the minute. Just download the stuff overnight(s). Your
system is working now or not? So no hurry to switch.
