[Mediawiki-l] Debian package and Mod Rewrite

hi,

we switched from the source package to Debians one. We had a structure
like:

http://www.foo.org/index.php/page

Debians version has:

http://www.foo.org/mediawiki/index.php/page

so, my problem is now, that nearly every "hard" link is now broken. I
want to fix these links with mod_rewrite, but i'm not sure how. I know
the page http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL but i don't get
it. We have also installed mailman and some more in the same way, so
that i can't redirect easy all to the mediwiki/ folder.

So, what i want, is that every "hard URL" works, like before. One way
were to suppress the mediawiki/ folder or, redirect from the URL without
mediawiki/, to the correct page, _with_ mediawiki/

any suggestions?

cu denny
