Happy version downgrade

Friends
I can't build ghc-9.0 because of this:

checking for ghc-pkg matching /opt/ghc/bin/ghc... /opt/ghc/bin/ghc-pkg

checking for happy... /home/simonpj/.cabal/bin/happy

checking for version of happy... 1.20.0

configure: error: Happy version 1.19 is required to compile GHC.
What is the easiest way to fix?  I have happy 1.19.8, but it's not called plain "happy"

bash$ happy-1.19.8 --version
