If you say `./configure --help`, you'll get all the flags to ./configure. Toward the bottom, it says that the HAPPY environment variable can contain the path to the happy executable. So try
> HAPPY=happy-1.19.8 ./configure and see where you get. You might need the full path to your installed happy-1.19.8. It might also be possible to pass --with-happy=/full/path/to/happy-19.8 as an argument.
