Hello,
One approach would be to fit your distribution using MCMC with, for
example, the rjags package. Then you can use the "zeroes trick" or
"ones trick" to implement your new distribution as described here...

You will find a summary of Bayesian / MCMC packages here...

Of these, rjags is the only one I've used directly so I can't comment
on which would be easiest. Hopefully others here can offer advice.
