That's not possible.
libh's current packaging system completely replaces the pkg_install
tools, but uses a completely different database and so on.

Since OpenPackages (http://www.openpackages.org/) is a similar
project,  you should take a look there.

I plan to merge the OpenPackages work completely into libh, so that
everything is possible from TCL (kinda easy once OpenPackages has a
package system .-) )
