Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
Hello,

a quick solution would be:
1) create ordinary sphere packing using makeCloud (possible called multiple times with different parameters for spheres and spheres to be replaced by cylinders)
2) replace respective spheres by cylinders
3) (if needed) compress the packing

For more detailed answer, please provide more detailed description of the problem:
- if/what you have already tried
- definition of "random distribution" (positions? orientation? volume fraction? ...)
- ...

cheers
Jan
