Release 14.2? (14.1 release advertises non-existing cmake build and breaks pfft usage)

I just tried to install 14.1 per user request from the release tarball. The procedure that worked with 13.0 is broken because the pfft option misses the fftw MPI check (a fix for that seems to be merged already) and the build is interrupted by this prompt:

WARNING: AutoTools are deprecated and will be removed in future.
Please, use CMake instead. See cmake/README.md for more information.

Press any key to continue.

This is highly irritating, as there is no cmake subdirectory in the release tarball. Well, it is irritating just for the fact that it interrupts a non-interactive build script. But pointing to a non-existing alternative build system adds insult to injury.

Can you please release a 14.2 with fixed autotools build and no blocking prompt and either include the (experimental?) cmake build system or just drop that message? So far I am contemplating what the proper thing to do is to fix the situation for the user that wanted new octopus. I prefer to rely on properly released versions, so would like to avoid switching to a snapshot or extracting patches.
