Have you tried making the parts already or are you just afraid of the
unknown?
I make all my own libraries, always. If there is a useable footprint
already existing it always still needs changes anyway.
You will rarely find someone halfway serious with making PCB who is not
having his own libraries.
So instead of looking for a program that has tube footprints, i believe
you should rather look for a program that has a decent way of editing
footprints.
