That seems to be the best choice at the moment. The port's
Makefile contains --with-cdrtools-prefix=${LOCALBASE} which
suggests that the integration of cdrtools / cdda2wav might
already be important at compile time.

Also look at the option "Use xcdroast w/o being root" which
should enable you to use the program without being root (which
is not good in terms of security).

This is a typical symptom of "install once, then keep using,
and never touch it again". :-)

Version 3.00 is better than 2.01 (required), so it should work.
But maybe xcdroast isn't just checking binary versions, but
also expects some kind of specific library version? At least
that kind of requirement should be resolved when you recompile
xcdroast _and_ its dependencies.

If an upgrade of all involved parts doesn't help, this seems
to be a good thing to do.
