Indeed you have to manually add all the basic modules.

In the cblrepo github repo you can find a list of packages for
7.8.2[1].  I still have to add one for 7.8.3.

Another option is to look at the database in habs.  Either you run
`cblrepo -g --no-repo` and pipe it to some suitable sed/awk script, or
you just copy the first lines from the database (the database has
three sections, of which we only use 2, the first one contains the
ones added with -g).

Hope this helps.

Code as if whoever maintains your program is a violent psychopath who knows
where you live.
